carbon fiber looks best on silverstone if you ask me...

 

thanks for the 2 comments so far. the hood that you sell what brand is it and does it have a latch? any warranty also? thanks

had to bump this also hah

 

It has a hood latch yes... and comes with all the hardware necessary to do the install...

cant really warranty the hood.. if there is a problem with it when it gets to you as far as something that happens in shippment... that will be covered from our shipping insurance...

 

yo jason.,.

so if i go there and pick it up...then price will be low?

or how much total install the hood at your shop?

 

is sandstone silver a new color??

but gruppe-s has cf hood (oem style) for $280 plus shipping.
http://www.gruppe-s.com
see the bottom of the page.

 

you can come by and pick it up... the price will be cheeper for pick up since you dont have to pay the $100 to ship it...

I dont know what the service department would want to charge to install it but we can work something out with them...

Jason

 

i wish i could see some hoods on some peoples z's. its hard to see what is good without peoples oppinions on hoods they have bought and puttin on. if anyone has a vis hood let me know how you like it.

 

Hey Jason...on your web site your oem cf hoods are selling for $395 is that shipped ???
Allso does this hood need pins ???

Thanks

 

$395 plus shipping on the web site...

Shipping is between $100-120...

Im doing a forum special for $450 shipped...

It does not NEED pins, but always recomended with CF hoods.. (i dont use on mine personally)

 

Jason, can you get the one with vents? like Veilside version 2?

thanks..

 

has anyone ever seen or have a SEIBON carbon fiber hood? ive heard of them but never seen the quality? thanks

 

Some college student at my school has a black hood on his red Intergra. I walked up close to see if it was CF, nope, black. =/ I have been looking over CF hoods. I want a vented one though. ANd I love the idea of not having to paint it

On an aside, I used to hate the CF look. Now I think if properly done, it can look really nice. A CF hood that flows into a CF front bumper or just a CF front lip looks nice. A CF wing in the back would balance everything out. I really wish that INGS+! low mount CF wing wasn't so much money. The high mount wing is ugly on the Z imo though. They tend to be taller than the roof! :P

 

Jason,

Do you ship to hawaii? If so, how much more for shipping.

Thanks.

 

it's always better to use hood pins. i've seen alot of guys with 'ok' quality hoods with decent latches on them have their hoods fly off while they are going down the hwy. i'd rather just use the hood pins.

...and just as a member looking out for other members...i wouldn't purchase anything from importfan/gtp. Those guys don't warranty their stuff (or care) in any shape, way, or fashion. Bad customer service and inferior products. They will be cheap but you get what you pay for. I bought a hood from them once and it clouded after 8 months, didn't fit properly and they wouldn't even consider giving me what I paid for.

Personally I think VIS is ok but I think veilside hoods are better. Just my .02

 

I found this on ebay, cf hood with vents.

I'd like to know two things. The quality of fitment on theOEM CF hood that performance nissan sells in the pic above. I'd also like ot know some of the BEST fitting cf hoods out there.

 

same here

 

Here is my OEM CF hood I got from Gruppe-S. Quality is pretty good except around the edges where you can see some white marks. The fitment is 100%.
