#5070, "Need help with a CF hood and picking a front end"
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!

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...

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. Carbon Fiber hoods cost anywhere from $300 to $800+. Make sure you see the hood before you buy it so you can see the quality..

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.

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.

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.

I was just kidding about not getting them.....I told another person on another post that I can maybe help hook him up. I just thought I'd say that because I am so damn happy that I'm finally getting them. I think they are the nicest skirts around so whoever gets them should be happy because their car will look a lot better.
Not trying to be a bitch...But who all has them? I know of VxRoxV and cant think of any others right now...?

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.
