  • I'm sure there will be no loop, when using a Fiberglass or carbon fiber hood I personally would still use hood pins.... I've seen to many fly back and break windshields...

    Don't matter if they are the best pf quality, the wind will rip it up eventually.

    As for the payment i emailed him if he is going to start taking payments or are we waiting the the carbon fiber pictures.

            why does the loop need attached for inspection if you have secure hood pins? The loop would not be a functional loop and therefore would do no justice

              Keep your stock hood around just for inspections... problem solved :lol:

              • I know this is a retarded question, but can you make Carbon fiber rims for stock festiva tires? lol, But anyway i would love to buy a hood and possibly the spoiler depending on its style.

                  • Since the hood we sent them does not have the provisions for the hood latch loop....he won't make one. He has no access to a junkyard to look for one, and sending a another hood in stock form....well would be costly.

                    Other parts will be made....Trust me. I just want to see how easy the rest of this transaction is going to be. He can make just about any piece.

                      As long as all goes well with these hoods, and they fit as great as the FMS ones, i would be interested in seeing about ATH style body kits being re-produced by this guy, of course depending how the hoods go
