thanks for getting back to me. personally, im not a fan of carbon fiber hoods, while they save weight i just think its a bit much and also i dont like how far back the inlet openings are on that particluar hood. the reason i liked the venom hood was cause of how far up they were towards the front of the car. ive actually found the hood im gonna go with, its the Saleen Superflow hood. found it on 281 Motorsports.

How much does the carbon fiber hood weigh?

The Venom hood looks real good and all the cars you see on Trufibers website belong to my friends.I've seen that Saleen hood in person on a white 2011 GT and it looks killer.

as far as weight I would say the CF hood is atleast 5-10lbs lighter then the stock hood.
I like the cowl hoods because they just scream muscle and that's what I ran on my Fox 5.0 :)

i may be purchasing more than one hood now....

Awesome hood...i'm gonna get the same one, but i want to see the underside of it first. Do you have any pix of the underside?

Kpd3014 8/4/11 03:21 PM

No but I can get you a couple. It is plain nothing special but looks finished

Gorgeous. Looks very muscular. Kind of Boss 429-esque.

The Saleen is amazing as is the CF hood. Outstanding good choices.
