hood and the pride spoiler depending on price in fiber not carbon

[sodikartracer]

Im probably in for some parts. And since i live in so-cal could i pick them up so i dont have to pay for shipping?

[festiva816]

cf hood and spoiler just need price and looks great the guy knows how to lay it

[festivaWES]

Carbon fiber hoods are going to be 325 plus shipping. He emailed me saying 3 weeking for the tooling to produce the first unit. The GTX hood supplier will recieve a 25% percent discount, whom of which is Fastorbust.

I had another question for him if fiberglass hoods would be cheaper because it seems almost a 50/50 toss up. Maybe making it 290 of so for a FG hood.

He is most probably going to want a non-refundable deposit to HIS paypal not MINE. I'll set up the shipment through ODFL through my work for cheap. Who ever is in CA if they choose can go pick it up at there location if it is ok with him.

I need a good quality pic of a gtx hood front and back and I'll get the demensions and email them. Still working on the spoiler and other odds and ends.

Sounds Good Wes good work

I'm thinking there would be a demand for a thin FG repair patch for the usually first-to-rust section fwd of the rear wheel openings. I tried to pull a mold off a car using Plaster of Paris. I built a box from thin plywood, clamped, wired, and duct taped it in place from the door opening to the wheel arch. It was a big mess and the plaster didn't flow good enough to produce a usable female mold.

Word from the boss said fiberglass GTX hoods will be 200 plus shipping. Shipping sound be fairly cheap through a pallet through ODFL. Lets start some sort of a list of people who are interested.

Still in need of pictures of a GTX hood!!!!

He said a rear hatch would be about the same cost. Spoilers are next on the list.

Gtx hood sounds good to me!

[aspireguy95]

do you think he could do an aspire hood? if so i would love one and can put down a deposit

[festivaWES]

There would have to be a maket for them. Might want to head over to the aspire forum and see how many would be interested, but yes it could possibly happen.

[Damkid]

i'll be right back with pics/dimensions of my GTX hood

[Damkid]

The hood is very flimsy and and i beleive they do not come with the holes for the hood pins






This is my crappy drawing of the measurements i took of the hood, if you need more let me know

[bobbyspider]

did you get any farther on this project because Im interested in a body kit and Im not to sure about spending like 800 on the festiva motorsports one. I live close to them and their prices on everything else are pretty good but the body kits I just cant afford. Please let me know Ill pm you.
