CarbonFiberOne hood?

I'll be moving to the San Diego area at the end of the year. Of course, if they want to start shipping it out to Washington instead for the remainder of the year, I'm game.

Well, I guess, since working on a mod for a Civic or a WRX is simple enough because there is one on every street corner, having a VX is just not the turn of the litter as rare as we are. Simply put, we have nicer curves and more style than these cars, and getting the EXACT fitment requires a few tries before the mold and measurements are perfect. The hood they sent me was damned close, but off just a bit in more than a few areas. If they had a VX available, this tweaking could probably be resolved faster than dealing with a "virtual" car and not having to communicate from 3,000 miles away from the guy who is test fitting. Easier to see what needs tweaking when you see it woth your own eyes as well. The one I tried wasnt too bad, but the modifications I had to make to my truck to get it to at least close, like shimming, werent exactly acceptable. They are very close and trust me, it looked damned good on the VX with the C/F scoop. I would hate to see this one of a kind opportunity go unfinished.

i would be willing to go...but i live in norcal so i can get a trip in maybe in a few weeks......

I live in Victorville, but work in Brea California. Not too far from Disneyland. So if they are in So-cal it is a real short trip considering where I am at everyday. How long would they need it?

If they need a VX to test fit the hood for you guys, I am not against having mine be the guinea pig if it will save you some time. I just have not been checking the boards that much lately (trying to get caught up with everything else in life, and hoping the stuff I do makes the company I work for more profitable. Direct E-mails to me work best if you need help.

Not 100% sure of their location since I dont know Cali well, but if you think you are capable of being the guinea pig, contact john@carbonfiberone.com and get the details. They are pretty grateful of folks who help out so who knows, there may be a free product involved in it for you.

oooo free lol...

[Wulfgott]

Already talked to them. (Decided to give them call). If I can get a free one out of this, that would be AWESOME! As my original hood is kinda jacked from Dealer work. (They screwed up my hood and refuse to fix it). Everything else is perfect though.

Anyway, I am taking her down Monday to get her test fitted. I am sure they already talked to you or let you know. if not, they will be I in contact I am sure.

They are apparently only 15 minutes from where I work so pretty convenient and I don't mind helpin' you all out to make sure it is right.
