#9238, "Carbon Fiber Hood"




          

Where is a good place to buy one from. i see some on groupbuycenter.com for like 475 shipped. I was also looking on NOPI's site and looked at there CF hoods and it didn't look like there was a hump on them. what are some questions that i should ask on the quality and who manufactured them. is there any manufacture to stay away from?

when you put carbon fiber hood on, do you have to use hood pins? or can you use the orginal hood latch to keep the hood shut?

Some have latches, but are too light not to use pins. Use pins or it might fly off.

Man wish I had some $$$, I heard that without hood pins the sides might catch wind when driving at high speeds and you'll get drag or YIPES the hood will fly open. If there was an invisible type of hood pin now...??
