I got a place where they can make me a fiber glass hood that looks either like stock or inverted style for 100 dlls..is that a good deal? I would have them paint it either the cars color or black.. what would u guys think?

hmm seriously? I could get them to make them for cheap..just that shipping would be the killer. I would have them made either stock looking or the inverted style..not really to sure about the price but yeah way way much less than the cf.

ya shipping would probably be 150-200. but even then its not even close to the price of the cf hoods. they usually cost around $500-600.

Tomorrow I get the info on the fiber glass hood. Im going to ask them if they can make inverted style hood and the regular stock hood. Im sure they can since they do very good body kit copies. Im getting my mx3's body kit there. an entire kit costs around 300 dlls installed. If they do maie them Ill order one and show u guys the pic and if anyones itnerested I may start a group buy..well not group buy maybe individual selling? since im sure they can have them done in less than a week, fiber glass is much easier to mold and get. I would probably sell over ebay for positive feedback reasons. That way buyers could be sure to get what they pay for. I was told that the wonderworks sideskirts cost 100 dlls over here. Dunno if anyone be interested? I might get my rear spoiler installed this or next week, ill take pics so u can get an idea of how well a job they do.

Ohhh ahh hee..yeah thats simple, ive seen em make fiber glass hoods for the old civics (89) with that style its easy..they just cut the fiber glass trough and sand it and add a mesh grille...pretty neat and im sure cheap to have done.

no, its a shop in juarez mexico. I know for a fact that they do a good job because they did the work on my brothers cavalier.. and they did an awesome work. installed. I know them personally and they are people of good faith :D Ill show you mine when its done. Alot of people prefer el paso shops because they think that they are going into mexico to get ripped off...but actually..its the opposite way. Ill get the quote as soon as possible.
