I was just browsing some old web sites I shop at, and came across a new hood for pre 98 tours from Extrem Dimensions, check it out
Ok my opinions are I like it  , fiberglass is just as light but not as strong as carbon fiber, at least it can be painted to match the car, its about time something new came out, and its kina costly. These are just my opinions of course.
What do you guys think?

at $450 a pop, ill take a big pass on that. Not to mention, they just give a generic pic of what the hood looks like.

Yeah, I hate generic pics, but you 98+ people already have a carbon fiber cowl hood developed.

unfortunately it has a random dip in the front of it... which is probably one of the only reasons i wouldnt get it.

Too bad no one has yet to make any true CF hoods.The fibreglas hoows with the overlay looke great, in most cases, but they still have tendancies to warp and crack which sucks.

That is the worst photo chop I've ever seen someone do. I'd have to see one painted and on the car. that chop makes the thing look like ass.

I sent ED an email to find out what was up with those pics and how come they didn't at least put the prototype picture up on the web site. Also, I asked them about that price and basically told them that CF hoods cost cheaper(because they do). Hopfullly they respond tomorrow so we can see what they say, but it would be even better if they just fixed it.

yeah please tell me what is the point of putting photoshops on your website.
if you can't put pictures of your actual products then I'll pass...I doubt they even make it.
