Unless a fortune was spent on reboxing and shipping, I feel it would befall the same fate as many that were sent out, unless it was picked up...

Hoods will ship 20 business days after full payments are received. I'll work with the froum to set up a bulk buy once we have a potential 10-15 individuals ready to initiate the bulk buy.

Manufacturing time required is 15 business days depending on the size of the order.

Would ut be possible to do some X construction under the hood so that the hoos doesn't move in high speed. I wil be using the car on fast tracks. What does the hood weigh?

I need a hood like this for my crossfire. I have looked everywhere and can't find one. I would really like a vented one like on the vipers but this one looks amazing. Where does one find a hood like this to purchase?

You're a bit out of luck as there is only one aftermarket hood option and you've found it right here.. not currently in production but you can try to spark the flame again

Yes the vents are cool, but the horizontal lines of the original hood are a design feature that makes the crossfire unique!

As MRMiata mentioned, the sebring, minivan and several other vehicles have the hood lines, I was happy to lose the mini-van grill and hood lines in place of CF

I never had any clear coat problems, nevertheless after 3 1/2 years, I did decide to paint my vented hood all black to match the car after seeing some of the cars on the forum with the hood painted.

Either way looks amazing to me!

I too have been trying to get this cf vented hood. How do we go about making this happen. I am ready to purchase now, and I am not bluffing.

Please someone chime in and set forth how we can make this happen

Hey dufus.. if you have paid any attention to the development and sale of these and the renigged purchases you might have an educated guess instead of looking like a total idiot right now.

Oh.. and where do you get jealous? I was here for the clearance sale if I would have wanted one. DUH..

Oh wait .. I missed your join date.. dry your ears and try reading before inserting foot.

And maybe if you are smart enough to read you'll realize how fortunate you are to even have the option of getting on the list below..

You wanted Now.. kinda like someone and his Turbo.. I showed you how.. Now Just ST... you get it I'm sure.
