Fiberglass Hoods

[KaliCali]

Haven't seen the Aftermarket sicky updated in a long time... Just wondering what are the options for fiberglass hoods for sale. Who are vendors that carry/make a fiberglass hood. A vented one would be nice.

would you perfer a fiberglass hood over a carbon or is it the cost issue?? we could probably make some vented hoods out of fiberglass not sure on pricing.

I offer FG versions of all our hoods, including the dual vented design.

Price would be around $400 + shipping.

I don't care for the carbon fiber just because I would paint over the hood. Another reason would be the lower cost, but the most important goal would be weight and heat extraction.

i too prefer fiberglass hoods, i'm just gonna paint the hood body color anyways. But i always imagined they'd be cheaper. i want the one ken sells so bad!

I love that fiberglass hood too but wouldn't it cost just as much maybe even more than a carbon fiber hood because you basically have to get it painted

Possibly... but I'd rather have a hood that matches the body color.
