need a hood to make a carbon fiber hood (seriously)

Post by jonathanj »

I need a hood to make a mold for a carbon fiber hood. This is NOT a joke. I need it ASAP. Me and a friend are making it. We already made a carbon fiber dash for the car. Check this out go too deepvision.net. Then go to events coverage. Then go to is2002 in Orlando. The second page, second row down on the end. Let me know what you think. But seriously after we make the hood we will sell them. Thanks Jon

actually, i have a rubber mold of my hood that i was going to use as a carbon fiber template. yea ive tried making one for a friend and it turned out great...the first time i didnt know how to work that damn vacuum oven so it didnt really set well...but the second time it was nice. my mold still has some of the mold release and is a little flexible, but can be shipped in a small box.

If you need a hood so bad, go to a junk yard. It would cost at most 150, but if you really are making tem with the intent to sell you will make a lot of money
