The entire hood not just the insert? I have never heard of that before on the VX. I mean I am not a fan of body panels not matching at all and would never do this, but has anyone seen a VX with the entire hood in CF? I have only seen the insert myself.

CFOne I take it? Looks like the same crappy fit mine had. It didnt seal well at all around the headlights which means air was able to get under and give the hood llift. Careful, thats the last thing you need on a highway. Hope you at least put hoodpins on there.

I still have mine in storage but it is unsuitable for safe use. Glad they gave it to me free as a prototype fitting. Damn shame because I thought their actual C/F work was great quality, just not so much their fitting.

Yupper, thats the one. It is the one I got from Wolfgot here on the forums... I actually don't have it installed, because of that reason. I kinda just bought it to see how one is made, to make them myself. rolled edges and such... When I test fitted it the first time, It sat square, but for some reason, I can't get it to align anymore so I just kept it off...I was planning to have it painted the same color but leave some area's clear where you can still see the cf...

@Vehi-Cross-Az
Are you able to get some pictures. I would really like to see the quality (edges, straightness of fibers and how it fits on the VX).

there are no safety issues with them at all..
just being CF is they seem to flex more then your std
steel hoods.
Ive been selling CF hoods for over 10 yrs for all sorts of
car, including Mustangs which travel way faster then any
VX on the freeway, with no issue.
Use it, enjoy it while you can is my opinion, thats all.
Being a hand made product, they will never fit as well as
the stock steel hood stamped out of a machine.
But they are lighter then stock which is nice too.
$580 is per hood, plus frt.
We can maybe go a little less, if they arent sold by the
Fall.

Is that $290 each?
How much in total to send 1 or both to the UK please?
Are they a direct replacement fit with all necessary bolt/fixing holes etc?
Thanks

I have no interest in it as I'm also someone who likes the panels to match, but it seems like the price is good as the normal metal hood should be $2-300 (wagging it) and to that you would need to add painting which wouldn't apply to the CF one
