I'm not quite sure, but the website does have a couple pics of the 4" ws6 style hood. The list price is $550 if that's accurate.

PSJ said the introductory gp price is going to be significantly lower, so I'd say $450 is a safe bet.

Pics pleeeeaaaase.... <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

John I agree 2lbs is alot.
I was just figuring the worst case scenario.
EG Prep,Paint and clearcoat = 2lbs

I dont know if you'll see the hood on a GP for $450
Maybe 475 + 90 S/H?

Still a great deal...
With paint u should have $800/850 into it.
22lbs off the nose is alot of weight.

SS hood should be about the same correct?
That's a good price!
Since I'm in the chicagoland area I can save $50-100 and pick it up! Sweet.
Will the SS and WS6 hood GPs be at the same time?
Will they run for a week, a month?
Thanks

if it is in the 500 dollar area i am in; i can come up with that money in no time, but if it is going to be near 1k i may have to wait on the GP. <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

Planned retail on the site is supposed to be $550. GP price would be below that. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Weight? I don't think we will put 2 lbs of paint on the hood heck a gallon of gas weighs like 6-8 lbs Joel. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I believe that that CF hood hits production when it actually happens.

I know of two places who have done CF hoods and they were $1200 mininum. (full cf)

I'll have the first 4" WS6 hood on mid next week, pics coming!!!

For sure available a year from now, but not at the GP price of course.

Yeah the 4" SS hood would be at or below $500 in the GP too.

Hoods include new bolts.

We will be using my car and Henry's cars for tapping the holes for the hinges and the latches.

Is the SS hood gonna be functional?
What will the underside look like and do you have a pic that would give us a good idea?
Also, will there be fitament issues?
