I searched around for you man, but i was was unable to find one installed on a 2g. I did see a pic of the hood though and i believe it would look good on your car.

I soooooo wish we could get an 2Gb style front bumper in CF for a reasonable price. Some day when I have tonns of extra money settings around (lol) I'm going to get one made, along with side skirts, and rear bumper, and then put a CF hatch, turbo wing, hood, and fenders on it... and have an almost completely CF eclipse! Till then... i'll stickw with a regular 2Gb bumper... :(

BTW, if you would like a 2Gb CF front and rear bumper, I got a quote on having them made, and it's $1500 each. I can dig through my old emails and see if I can find out who it was that I had quote that if you want me to.

Then again, you probably searched everywhere but 2GNT for this information, as I post www.squidskins.com/eagle/index.htm about five times a year here and tuners and T2G. SquidSkins has been offering 2GB front and rear clips in CF and FG for about three years now. They're something like $450 CDN. They also have the hood, fenders, door skins, dash, hatch, mirrors and GSX wing in either material. The owner tells me that, on the "Archer" car (which is the black Talon with the yellow), these peices reduced the weight by just over 300lbs.

Thank you. Come again.

If anyone is interested in front or rear clips. Please feel free to Paypal me the low, low price of $1000/each. If five people want to join the GB, I'll take care of ordering them for you for only $750. :rolleyes

Hmm.... it was a quite a long time ago when I got the quote... probably back in my days before I knew how to use the search button... sorry brian. I will try my best to keep all my information correct and up to date from now on. ;)

EDIT: Brian, you're probably talking about the Talon style bumper while I'm talking about the eclipse style. Or maybe you have to email them about the eclipse style... but I think squidskins is who I got quote from for custom eclipse CF bumpers... *goes to search*

The only good thing about that hood is the fact of how well it would allow the turbo to cool down and release more hot air to keep engine temps down.

Yeah. That's the reason that I'm going with their carbon fiber EVO style hood.
