SRT-6.com groupbuy ViS Racing Carbon Fiber Hood

2014-05-01: Vented CF hood will be done after diffusors
However, to get ready I have made a submission form at www.srt-6.com/groupbuy please go there and submit if you are interested.

Submitted so far --> Press HERE <--

News: Getting more info in mid Feb regarding start date.

Questions to ViS:

1. Ask how ViS reinforces the hinge and latch locations to prevent cracking after opening and closing many times.
2. Ask ViS what strut would work properly with the lighter hood and have them design the hood to use the OEM strut mount location.
3. What is their warranty on craftsmanship?

NOTE: Names are only added to list if you have submitted yourself to the www.srt-6.com/groupbuy form. (fullname, address and telephone number) and are okay with the information below.

Price range: $500-650$ USD

Shipping: $150 USD in continental US
Shipping more hoods to one address, price upon request
International shipping: Yes, possible to international airport. Price upon request

Material: Material will always be fiberglass for the core and underside. This keeps cost down, and for carbon, it's a real sheet of top grade 2x2 weave carbon material.

Flexing issue: I have brought this up to ViS so they will see what they can do about this. They had no known issues before as they make an replica of the underside of the oem hood aswell. The hoods that have had issues, I believe were somewhat flat and not the oem shape. Always recommended to use hood pins for security reasons.

Hoodpins: these will be needed to be purchased and installed seperately, no pre drilled holes

Paint: Hood will come in CF look and ViS special Poly Shield finish.

Design: The design we are going after is the so-called Waldig/Firepower design. Vents at front with spine. Simple but still functional and good looking.

The design photos I will leave to the ViS team is the following:

Design: The ViS design team will give their opinion on everything but I got green light on the design. AAs they are specialist I will let them put their touch on the design aswell. No major changes will be done but I will listen to their expertise and see if we can tweak it to the better. Also if clearance issues are a problem we then will re-think the design and we then will have to start over with a new list. Note, this is when drastic changes are made. We will try to make the design to look similar to the pictures above.

Emblem: The hood will be making room for the OEM emblem.Not included so you will have to use your own. Depending on what Vis are saying some drilling may be necessary to get the pins down.

Clearance: We will have 2 SRT-6 vehicles available for ViS to use for measuring and testing. For clearance we will use a SRT-6 with DCAIs and to get the hood we will use a stock SRT-6.
NOTE: I cannot guarantee fitment for N/A and/or rebuilds.

Money and shipping and warranty and the usuals are all dealt directly with ViS. I am carrying out this groupbuy as a private individual and not a business. So if anything will go bad with shipping, fitment and other reclaim issues, everyone will be needing to get in touch with ViS.

I hope I got all information that we need. If we are missing something, please let me know and I will add it.

Let's make this happen!

Kind regards,

/ Philip at www.srt-6.com
