sweet , they just need to let me know how much they need down and I can have it together in a week if under 400 ... over 400 would be 2 weeks ..
btw I tend to call Derrick every know and then and I order what I can from him .. In my eyes no matter what anyone on this or any board says he is a good guy ...

I will second that!

 

Yeah I am definitely interested in the hood. The only thing is to get the money for the hood will take me to sept.-oct. to have some freed up cash. but you're sayin CS is thinking of stocking them?

 

If they end up getting made, they shouyld be.

 

so is this going to be a completely stock looking cf hood? or will it have a scoop? also what is the down payment needed?

 

ok sorry for the last post... i read the first post a while ago and should have read it again... i do have a ? that wasnt' addressed... will cs boost the price when they get their hands on it?

oh also... since they seem to have a really good price... what about making the housings for projectors for us? just a thought

 

Update -

As of yet, we have not been contacted by CS about the hoods.

We will not make them unless there are at least 10 guys who are willing to put down a 50% non-refundable deposit on them.

Our time would be better spent doing R&D on go-fast parts, hence unless you guys are actually serious, and have the backing from CS, we will not make them.

 

well since in a week or two i have to pay for my jspec bumper it will take about a month but i can have the down payment for the cf hood by then and another 2-4 weeks i should be able to have the rest.... would that possibly work?

 

Well once a time is set in stoneof when to get this deposit to ???? . At least then I can get the 50% together to get this made.. I am definetly in , just need at least 2 weeks from today to do the 50 % ...(prior bills) ... but otherwise count me in as one ... 1 .. uno ... I want one ..

Are there pictures anywhere of the underside of a hood (I understand one hasn't been made as of yet for the Protege, but a pic of another hood would do). I'm interested in seeing the underside bracing, hinge mounting, latch assembly, and prop rod provisions. Also, what sort of time frame are we talking here? I understand deposits will be taken as soon as the minimum order of ten is fulfilled, but how long after that until the hoods are delivered? And do I understand the pricing correctly - $650CAN+$100USD shipping. Thanks...

 

what do you want to see, the undersid of a factory hook or the underside of a CF hood...

If it is a CF hood then you would have to refer to one of the 3rd gen guys , because they ION also made CF hoods for the 3rd gens ...

I think everything would be of high quality though

lotsacars - this is what the latch looks like

 

Please note that the prices on shipping quoted are for shipping to 1 location only. If there are 8 different locations to which the hoods are being shipped to, each hood will cost $150US for shipping.

As well, we will require someone to send in a stock hood which is totally straight, no dents or paint chips

 

what are your thoughts on the amount of people we have gathered so far

 

Bruce95fmla - well there's nothing really to think, however there hopefully is only 1 person co-ordinating the payments and all the address of the people involved.

Hopefully things will go as planned for you guys and we'll be able to make the hood.
