5070, Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by Nitrous_RS1997, Jun-05-01 05:48 PM Ive never been a whole lot into the "show" aspect of cars, but i have always respected it very much. Recently ive decided that i want people to say "wow that looks damn good" just as much as i want them to say" damn thats fast!" :-) anyway...where can i get a CF hood at and for how much $$$? my stock one is pretty well beat up, so might as well save some weight and look good also. now to the front bumper... i LOVE the one that Klipzracer has on his(dont know what it is) and i also like the WW Agressor, for its looks, and its made of urethane. any other suggestions? im gonna get some WW sideskirts cause i like their clean OEM looks. thanks for any help/opinions on this... i REALLY need it!! post pics if possible. thanks a lot guys/gals! | |

5071, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by eclipse804, Jun-05-01 08:34 PM That front bumper is the Blitz bumper, also known as the Battle Z because VIS calls it that. You can get it from www.visracing.com, or from me if you are in socal. I don't think you are, so your best bet for quality is to get it from VIS. I think they charge around 300 plus shipping... | |

5073, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by icjeclipse, Jun-06-01 01:54 AM If i were you i wouldn't get stock sides. You should get Blitz type 2 sides. They are more flashy than stock, but not to wild. Plus they are cheaper than the stock ones. | |

5074, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by EvuLFleA, Jun-06-01 05:06 AM Dont get the Blitz Type 2's because I will be ordering them in about 3 hours. :) | |

5076, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by HadesOmega, Jun-06-01 09:35 AM theres a dude on thepartstrader.com in the DSM section (miscelaneous sub section) that is selling a CF hood for 380. It comes with the latches too, so no hood pins. I'd ask if it was real carbon fiber first. | |

5077, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by Nitrous_RS1997, Jun-06-01 10:53 AM Are there any Companies that carry carbon fiber hoods? thanks. | |

5078, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by icjeclipse, Jun-06-01 10:56 AM The WW agressor is noy urathane, but fiberglass. Check http://www.groupbuycenter.com for cf hoods. | |

5079, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by icjeclipse, Jun-06-01 10:54 AM Well don't order yours cause i already know of 2 people on this board that have them. There are not enough parts on the market for the eclipse for every single person to be orignal. | |

5080, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by klipzracer, Jun-06-01 12:34 PM i would still put hood pins on a fiberglass or CF hood. sure mine is excellent quality but i'm gonna take NO chances. also i didn't get CF cause everyones got it and i've seen a lot of "didn't fit right" horror storys. | |

5081, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by 2GXTASY, Jun-06-01 12:35 PM The Blitz/Battle Z only comes in fiberglass right? They don't make the kit in urethane do they? | |
|
5082, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by icjeclipse, Jun-06-01 01:58 PM That's correct, Battle Z/ Blitz, as well as 90% of the other bodykits out there only come in fiberglass. | |

5084, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by icjeclipse, Jun-07-01 01:39 PM Eclipse 804 has them. I want them but i already have Blitz Type 1 and don't want to buy another set of sides. | |

5086, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by cyan, Jun-06-01 02:38 PM yeah kaminari, stillen and tsunami are the only urethane kits for our cars. please dont get the agressor, hideous. | |

5087, RE: Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end Posted by Nitrous_RS1997, Jun-06-01 05:09 PM Any other place for carbon fiber hoods? or a place that has a large selection of body kits/hoods? i looked at asylumms, but i heard that they suck as far as quality goes. thanks a lot guys. | |
