Looking for C5 components
 
Anyone know who makes a Carbon Fiber hood for a C5 Corvette? Also looking for anything super light weight for these cars. Anyone make thin glass for these?

Thanks for any leads,

Kurt

For MFG, or Retail? If you just need products like this conact Mike from Mid America. If it is there he can get it.

We are putting a C-5 on a diet and have done alot already, just looking for that little something extra. Maybe some specialty parts if anyone offers them.

You can get them, It will be race stuff quite thin and not the best fit, And the cost will be high, Ounces per square inch on laminate thickness is not that much, You can take the body panels that you have and glass bead them from the back side, If you mask real good before you blast you dont even need to redo the finish. You can take the panels down about 35% with out getting any pull through.

The one we used fit good and wasn't that thin, it was just like a normal glass hood just out of carbo fiber and it was alot of money
