As you know the last group buy didn't get anywhere because of questions with fitment.
After talking with the company a few times over the phone, I've actually went ahead and ordered one hood for myself to see how it fits, so people wanting to join in on the group buy can be rest assured of the fit and finish of this product.
The hood was produced by the now non existant company CWEST.
I am happy to report that the hood turned out to be very nice. Couple minor issues, which is completely normal with all aftermarket hoods.
* You need to move the latch up higher for the hood to shut. My Steeda hood for my Mustang which cost almost 3 times as much as this hood had the same issue, as to many other aftermarket composite hoods which I've purchased.
* Your washer nozzles might not fit out of the box, you will need to do 30 seconds of sanding on the sides of the base of the nozzles for them to fit.
Other than that, the hood is great. What I really liked was the the carbon fiber is wrapped about 2 inches around on top of the frame of the hood, which you don't see many companies do for cost cutting reasons. The weave is nice and consistent. IT was also very well packed, which is annoying when you get it and all excited to take it apart, and you struggle to get the bubble wrap off
We need atleast 5 people for the group buy. Pricing is as follows:
5 people $400 ea.
Shipping is $150.00
Here are pictures of the hood fitted
Make a numbered list with your username if you are interested, once there is 5 people in the GB, we'll get the order placed.
