Default Silver & Blue Carbon Fiber Hoods!!!!

Hello,

I am testing the waters on this top see if we should become a vendor. We sell carbon fiber hoods and we are able to make them on colors. I have attached some pics of the silver and blue hoods we have made for the SRT-4. These color match very well witht the 350z paint colors. We have the mold for the 350z but have only made black so far.













We can make black (only $299), Blue, Silver, RED, Orange

Our colored CF hoods are only $375 + $150 shipping. We have sold many of these on srtforums.com

http://www.srtforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=135

Email me if you are intrested. Thanks

Robert

That blue is pretty tight. I have a DB Z and my current CF hood needs painting because I mangled it and the body prep is starting to crack. If you can make one like the Fuzion hood(with the side vents in addition to that center one) I'd be interested. How's the fit?

The fitment is great, right now we just have the oem style. If we start to sell more we will start to offer more styles.

Thanks

Here's my thoughts...

You need to offer them in more colors. (colors that Nissan has kept with the 350Z since it has started, i.e.: silver, red, blue, orange)
Keep the price to $350-400 for regular CF with no vents (OEM-Style).
Keep the price to $400-420 for colored CF with no vents (OEM-Style).
Keep the price to $420-480 for regular CF with vents.
Keep the price to $480-520 for colored CF with vents.

Just my opinion. Personally, I think they'd sell a lot better, plus if the fitment is better than Seibon (since you would certainly beat them on price) and weight savings is near Seibon weight savings. You'd have a great market.

BTW, you need to contact a different administrator than me to get sponsorship/vendor status.

Nice! Do you make custom hoods for customers? I personally want a hood similar to the Do-luck Lift Up Hood.

Here's some pics. It looks really close to stock except that the center piece from the center on down towards the windshield buldges out more. I think it give it a nice subtle but aggressive look. Thanks!

Once we get our vendor status ready I could start a group buy on them. I would have to make a few of them to make it worth while for me to make that hood.

It looks good though

How much it theirs? I do not see it listed on the site. I am sure we could beat their price.

I didn't even see that in his first post, sorry. Either way, it's still 100+ cheaper than Seibon.
