#57827, "Fiberglass OEM Hoods....?"




          

Im having a hard time finding venders selling just oem fiberglass hoods so that i can replace mine and get it painted... but i dont want to get a carbon fiber due to the price.. since im going to paint it anyways...

i wont be looking to buy one till beginning of next year.. and im hoping to find a local seller so i can not mess with shipping.. im certain an oem fiberglass hood can not cost that much compared to a carbon fiber one, but like i said.. im having no luck finding anything on the web about one.

so if anyone has any ideas or links be sure to post them and help me out.. emoji

btw.. i live in Houston, TX..

if i have to ill try and get a used steel hood either from someone selling it or from a junkyard, but id love to save some weight if i can by getting a fiberglass one... and i just want a stock OEM hood.. not the funky odd looking ones that most people seem to get these days..

thanks

well i dont think they do or ever will. cuz its basically the same weight, and made out of the same material as carbon fiber. so it would be the same price

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.
