Re: interest in a lift off Trans Am hood? Guido, a guy out of Toronto makes those, they are like $1200 shipped in CF, and he does not make them in a bolton. I talked to him a couple months ago and since he won't make boltons I never took it antwhere. I originally called around and talked to Mike Yedgarian who owns that Super Street car.

I am questioning that $450 for CF, does not sound right, I've heard $800-1000 just for a stock-style CF hood, so a WS6 hood would surely be more.

Re: interest in a lift off Trans Am hood? I am trying to round up puctires for everyone, but you have to realize I am at the mercy of the company to respond to my questions.
They say the CF hood is paintable and I am asking about Z28's and SS hoods.

Re: interest in a lift off Trans Am hood? good news!!!! found out that they make a Camaro SS style hood
to recap;
Carbon Fiber = $450 (12 lbs paintable version, 20 lbs clear)
Fiberglass = $300 (25 lbs)
So far I know of 7 people wanting SS hood and 5 for the Ram Air, when I get the rest of the answers I'll get all of you in touch with the manufacturer. I want to ensure that they can deliver a quality product by asking a couple of guys to check around the racing community. I also asked them a couple of questions today and waiting for response;
1.) Do they have any pictures, I am sure people will ask?
2.) What is the delivery time from order to shipping?
I am not sure how this will work out but I am trying guys, bare with me.

Re: interest in a lift off Trans Am hood? On the carbon fiber design, what does the finish on the 12 lb version look like? Which one could be left unpainted?
