ANYONE CARE TO HELP ME DO A LITTLE RESEARCH?
ok i've been to wings west, dgmotorsports, and fiber images. I need prices. Im from Maryland by the way. Anyone beat $625 from fiber images?

(want good grade carbon fiber by the way...6k is nice, but costly.)

POSTS ASAP PLEASE!
 
Still my personal fav ... APC ... look around online for the best price. Mine was $550 shipped to NJ

Go with the Fiber Images man, good quality there. Everytime I see Sean of AutoR&D's hood, it makes me want to just not buy springs or rims and buy the the hood. iON's looks good too, but I'm not a fan of the seam down the center of the V weaved hood. APC's looks good too, but I've heard of their hoods having wavy issues. DG's is awesome too, but I really dislike having the logo on the front of it, looks pretty tacky IMO, the same thing goes for O.E. Tuning's hood. The logo kills it.
 
APEXistud - the "seam" in the middle is only cause by a reflection of the flash on the camera.

We do have a striaght weave CF hood too :)
 
i live in calgary.. so is that 700 total price? no shipping since i will drive to UC and pick it up myself.. (possible install there as well)
 
pr5owner - due to our "great" *read sarcastically* government, there's GST on top of the price quoted.

Also, our warehouse where we keep our hoods isn't in Alberta, so it still will require shipping. If you get a few of your Protege buddies together, you'll probably be able to save at least $50CAD/hood just for shipping :)
 
hey budd as we spoke today on the phone .. I will be most likley calling you tommorrow to get mine over here !!! thanks again man

damn getting ***** twice.. stupid government and non calgary based warehouses... bah
 
pr5owner - You may actually be in luck. We're having some of our stuff in the warehouse transferred over here before we send it off to Dark Nights in Toronto as well as going to Montreal. So shipping won't be as bad as you think ;)

Which style were you interested in? the V weave, regular, or CF/Kevlar coloured ones?
 
Thanks to all who replied!

I'd just like to thank everyone for replying back. Been a big help, saving me time. I really like some of the deals, still not sure which one im going to go with. The top of my list though, right now is, c/f hoods from ion Performance. The non-"V"weave for $495 is a good deal to me, how much is the c/f colored kevlar?

+ ATTENTION EVERYONE..keep updating me with other hoods please! I expect to buy a hood by next month. Prices, Links, hook-ups, or whatever...I wanna hear. Thanks again.

Just passing a not that my hoods are shipped for $570.00 to any where in the US .. and these are VIS hoods and are OEM at this point
 
RE2 MP5RAYSER:I'd have to look more into ViS' hoods. As far as body kits..i heard their quality isnt all that. ..doesn't fit right and all. But I'll check out ViS' site. If u know a dealer or other site, let me know.
