Default new hood.

i was just seeing what other nismo owners thought about this hood. i am currently getting pricing on it. its an mcr part from japan. fully functional, and used on their track cars. my hood got dented and i need to either replace it or get it fixed. as far as i know, there are none of these hoods currently in the US. i am not a fan of any of the aftermarket hoods i have seen. this one seems to flow very nicely with the lines of the nismo.

The MCR hood is roughly $1K, but ordering could make it quite pricey.

Also look into the Top Secret hood for '07+ Zs.

MCR hood is definitely cheaper than the Top Secret.

Very nice, I like the Top Secret one as well. You can get the Top Secret one for just over 1K.

Also, the canards won't work with the USDM NISMO bumper due to the front reflectors. You would have to order a JDM bumper.

I tried to get the MCR Canards for my Redline. Andy @ Performance Nissan never got back to me! Go figure. Esp with as many mods as I purchased through him. "sigh"

I do like the MCR Hood but with shipping its quite pricey. But If I was in your shoes with a dented hood I'd go the same route.

Default Top Secret

I got the top secret carbon hood from Z1 Motorsports. Its so nice and fits perfect. It was pretty expensive but I would do it again.
