just email them.
the offer is only for internet only.
shipping is 125 though but thats fine.

[EgNyTeR]

Thanks guys! I really love the hood as it looks very tight! Anyways, just so that you guys know the price is in cheap ass canadian dollars!:wtc:

[EgNyTeR]

Mfs: Sorry but I'm not sure how much it weighs. All I know is that I can pick it up with my pinky! That's light enough for me :applaud:

[Jas]

hmmm the toyota look so much better than the acura

[MSR27]

EVIL- If you want a ViS hood, I can get you hooked up, I can probably do it cheaper than 410. Since I like your car so much, I am even willing to hook you up with a Spoon CF hood, it will definitely be more than 410 but not more than 500 but its worth every penny. Let me know if you are intersted.

I thought Spoon only made parts for Honda...:wtf:

[zcs626]

me too, hrm

[X-EVIL-X]

SPOON???
let us know a little more about this:)

[Mistrimeat]

Yep, I was right. go here: http://www.spoon.jp/eng/

They only make parts for Integra, Civic, and S2000.

This guy is either bs'ing or extremely confused with what kind of car you drive...:thumbdown

[MSR27]

You guys are right, Spoon manufacuters parts for Hondas only. BUT I have a friend that runs his own business in SoCal and he is a dealer and distributor for JDM companies only I.E C West, Mugen, etc. He imports Spoon composite carbon fiber, I dont know if any of you guys have actually seen it but the Spoon composite is like nothing Ive ever seen before. The weaves are just beautiful and the carbon fiber itself is quality that you cant get anywhere else. He is making me a Spoon composite hood right now using the molds directly off of a OEM Toyota Celica hood. He works with Sunny Stylings, the carbon fiber specialist. Sunny is the one that is making my hood using the Spoon composite, and Sunny's work is emmaculate. Sunny is the one that used to provide hoods for ViS before all this drama happened. To give you guys a little history on Sunny Stylings, he does all kinds of custom work and the quality of the carbon fiber he uses is just as good as Spoons, just no distinctive design. Sunnys hoods were the closest thing you can get to a Spoon built hood before because Spoon was very hard to get, nowadays it isnt. You interested?

Uhhh WWWWTTTTTTFFFFFF.... Did that thing go through your windshield?

[X-EVIL-X]

i might be interested.
i would have to see a few pics of it to decide.

[SloGTS]

thats hot....i have a silver and want to get a fiber hood too...but too much money and with the haters around here....itll more likely just get ripped....

[CelicaNamja79]

I want a CF hood now...

[Hungster]

hehehe i just got mine in today and i cant wait to get off work and go put it on already. i got a vis cf hood. vis is awesome quality and i paid 450 with shipping and tax

[Sups]

that looks nice.. but looks really dirty tho

[MSR27]

EVIL- This hood will not be mass produced, the only one available will be on my car, you'll have to wait till its done then I have to make a trip down south, so it might be about a month if you can wait that long. Like I said before, i can also get you the ViS hood for pretty damn cheap too, thats always another option to go with, but then again, having a Spoon hood would be nice, we would be the only ones in the country with it!

[Miguel GTS]

that hood i can get on a GP for like 400 shipped if i get 10 ppl or maybe even 350

[X-EVIL-X]

ill pm you about this:):)

[ctkrider]

Sunny Styling does have awesome carbon fiber weaves, but from what I saw, their fitment wasn' that great. Hopefully the hood that you are getting will fit better than the one I saw.
