Thread: hoods

Ok so i posted this on my local gp club. I am making a couple hoods(4) and they are knock off's of what is out there and one is my own design. the reson decided to do this is because i have found that they can be made cheaper then they are being sold. i have noticed that they are selling for 600 a pop and it only cost about 200 to make 3 hoods. Well when i get move into my new house. i will post some pics what i have so far at the shop. One of the hoods s a ws6 style, the other is a four vent and the i am doing inferno style for the '97-03 bidy style and the last one is a twin scoop that is also a cowl hood, well let me know if this has any interest here?

yeah i wuld doit for a 04 and newer as ong as i can find a stock skin to start with. and you would have to l me know what design you are looking for if it not one that i have done

I am interested in a 04+ also

OK to answer the question about will it just be a scoop molded on a stock hood NO! They will use the stock framing from a stock hood is all. Doing that so its lighter but at the same time you can use stcok shocks and hood latch. As to fuction, well it will be open to where it forces air into the engine bay and pulls heat out the rear(heat extractors) but as for hooking a cone up to the scoop not yet they wont be. but as for he vents like i said yes they will be open.


And to the guys that will be interested when i get these done and post pics i will need you all to send me a im telling me the year and make of your car and what type of hood you want

well i will probaly end up selling them for about 200 a hood. And that is with them coming in primer. If you wanted them painted then it would be more and you would have to give me your paint code so i could match you the paint.


Oh and i was going to say this in the other post in repy to expecially i wisconsin. What better do i have to do in the winter. i mean i already spend 50 percet of my day in the shop why not make it more i mean during summer i am there longer. So i figured since i wanted a new hood and did not want to spnd 600 on a non painted hood i would check into it and see what it cost to make them thats when i saw the price and how easy they could be made and was like i am going to make a few of these and depending on how they turn out i will sell them to people that are interested

I am very interested if you are around that price range....04 +

I'd be interested also

if you want to wait a few months i sould have these all worked out. i have a few moldsm made like i said but can t do any tin with them ill i get moved into my new house some time next week

ok since i am new who is ron vogal

ok like i said if any one that is interested could tell me what esign the want in a emaito me on here that would be great and like i said if youave a design that i do not have listed just speak up and i wll work with you to see what i can make up. And i will be working on the intense one to see if i can make something like it.
