I am talking to a company now in my area about doing a carbon fiber hood. I need 10 dedicated people to start it. The cost is going to be $350. It will be a hood just like the stock ones, but about 75% lighter. It will not have any scoops. To get one made to have scoops will take almost a year and I would need more than 10 peeps. Come on guys this is our chance to get something sportier for our cars not to mention if you do race; a lot lighter. If we can get this done I know that we can get other things done like, bodykits, custom headers, intakes. If the people see that I am serious about getting these carbon fiber hoods I will after that be able to start getting these other mods. Please help.A contour owner that wants to make a difference. Thank you

Whats the company you are dealing with? Whats the quality of the units? Does it have the stock braces? Does it use the stock hood latch?

The company is in Cali. They are a reputable company. Some of there work is sold through www.zxtuner.com. All I need is a small deposit to get these started. Just 10 people. I am also working with the same people on getting custom ceramic headers. I believe that was 5 people including myself so far. We only need 5 more. The hood is an exact of the oem just made of carbon fiber. It will fit the exact way the oem one does now. Thank you guys for your support and remember just 5 more.

Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.
