I think the same way about lambo doors.. the real problem with them.. is that they never really offered functioning the way doors on certain lamborghinis did.. all the kits that are sold for most cars work by you pushing the door out than up.. Real lambo doors just go up and don't need to be pushed out.. and if the car rolls over you will get out the same way as you did as if they never existed as you still have to push the doors out first...

 

Hey SexyCross06, please don't forget to tell your friend making the carbon fiber hood that there may be others here at the forum that want one. After all, parts are hard to find and so is a part maker. Hope to see pictures of your car soon, good luck!

 

Ouch SilverFox... that's actually my interior. Check my gallery

OMG Drool… I’m almost afraid to ask how much of that you did yourself!

And dont' even get me started on the half assed pices of s*** driving around in gtown.

 

Couldn't you find any lower ratio gears for the track or were you doing a lot of street driving? I'm sure a 411 locker setup (assuming you had a manual trans) would have knocked a little off of the ET.

 

lmfao its so funny how fast you guys change colors when there is a split tail in the room. bunch of f=ckin idiots, and cgo tries to bash me real quick cause i think a wide body would be nice. how long was the thread about me putting 22's on my xf where i was called a ricer and told i was butchering the car what was it 20 some pages? yet in 2 pages a carbon fiber hood went from digusting to oh you should just cover it with a sticker. i wish i had **** thats all im gonna say.

 

Yup, sometimes I wish I had a set too!

 

LOL!

Irwin, it's called criticism. I haven't flip flopped on my opinion. I think 20s are too big and I think the CF hood and pink trim is gaudy. Dude, I don't care who's car it is, male, female, whatever. It's no big deal Man. I'm sure some people love your car, others probably hate it. I actually like your interior. Yeah, we all bust on eachother from time to time, but that's why it is a forum. It's basically just a bunch of car people wasting their time on the internet. The forums do however provide outstanding information for all types of issues. I take all the B.S. with a grain of salt. Just laugh it off. It's like a bunch of buddies sitting around ribbing eachother. Chill Devil, chill!

 

Can't we all just get along ??
If ya want to rip on each other please exchange phone numbers.
LOL

 

Yeah it was manual. However I did use it for street driving alot. So I needed it to be somewhat a daily driver.

Oh and I will deffinately tell my friend others may be interested in a carbon fiber hood. As soon as I get picS I will post them and if you like what you see I will give you all the information you will need to get in contact with him.

 

Awesome, that's why I love this forum someone is always willing to help.

No doubt your car made for a nice daily driver. I'll bet you stunned some male drivers at stop lights....lol

And, when the males on the board get around to checking out your Gallery photos, I anticipate a whole new level of interest in what you have to say.

 

[quote=woodlands1]lol.

And Yeah my mustang deffinately turned some heads when I drove it. Not to mention you could barely see me over the 4inch cowl hood.

 

I've just quickly scanned through this thread (and like most it wanders onto other stuff)...
Briefly, you should just be able to make/take a 'splash' of your current hood (show/customer side), out of fiberglass or similar (preferably something that does not shrink too much). Once you have that you have the mold for the outside of the hood - strakes and all. Then you lay your CF into that. One shot tool. You obviously have to trim the hood after that, finish up the raw edges etc, mount bracketry on the underside so you can attach it - unless you're going with pins etc. for an even lighter hood.

 

Hey Sexi,
