Thoughts. If i decide to get it, it will be going on a Blue 67 with budnik laterals thats on the ground. I will leave the hood raw if I get it BTW.

I like the hood design if the cowl was about 4" shorter.

I like it...would you leave it the way it is or paint it?

Only way i'm getting it is if I was to keep it raw. Loosing maybe 5 pounds to have a hood that looks just like a fiberglass hood after paint is not worth that much to me.

I'm just kinda thinking outloud. Lots of cudas run flat black hoods and look badass, this would look the same from a distance but then up close you would be able to tell it was carbon.

Looks amazing. I wish there was as many bits and pieces for Chevelles as there was 1st Gens...

I like it, I'd open up the area in front of the cowl to use as a heat-extractor if it were mine. :)

dont like it

I would like it enough to purchase if the cowl were not raised so high. Maybe half that height or less.

I would like to see how one fits before I spent $750+

My $.02

Wow! I didn't even look at the price. :wow:

That thing is sweet. I say go for it. :thumbsup:

i think its too much. too much money too much carbon and too tall.

i like the idea, i like the fact that its carbon fiber, dont like that its 4 inches tall.

I talked to this guy about a 2" hood like this or a 2" cowl hood. He said he has to ck with who make the hoods. Also trying to find out if this is a CF framed hood or fiberglass framed hood? He is checking?? If it's FG frame than I thinks it's priced to high, if it's CF frame than not a bad price if the fit and finish are good. I have seen alot of CF hood that should have never been painted.

It does look like its Fiberglass framed hood, which I agree with you on that aspect, should be carbon.

dont like it, the look is too 80'ies, like those widebody "all hat and no catte" corvettes in multicolored stripes in a hot rod magazine from 1983


it is just to much bling for my taste..

Agreed.

Is this the hood they use on the Baldwin Motion SuperCoupe???

i think it looks good, but on a black or silver car and leaving the hood raw.
