    Still stock completely capable!
    Any idea how these would handle a cold BC winter? I love the look ALOT especially on cement but I don’t have the room to store a regular hood for winters and don’t want it to fade to fast. Thanks.

    The hood is a finished Carbon Fiber. CF is very strong material in nature, and will withstand the elements. With anything in regard to a vehicle, we would advise maintaining the finish of the hood.

    Unfortunately, no current plans for a non scooped one.

    After seeing so many tacos on Volks, Rotas and underglow lights (rock lights) i knew this would be the natural progression of things :bananadead: That pretty much covers the 2001 JDM kids... Cant wait to see what the Euro kids bring to the table LOL :duh:

    Well, the beauty of it is that there are more options for people to make the trucks their own. :)

    People love black accents on non-black vehicles.
    Suprised these aren’t more popular.

    I personally wouldn’t put one on. They look ok when they are new but I have never seen one hold up under the elements.

    This hood would look great on my AG. Too bad I can't trust the hood hinges nor can justified using hood pins :(

    So before installing I had line-x place a coat of there Ultra on it which should give it great protection from fading and pin-stripping. Yes I have lockable hood pins to install with it. Yes I have Morimoto XB LED headlights. Once the cure time of 6 weeks is up install will happen. CF Hood.jpg
