I was wondering if anyone can tell me where to get a split hood or how to split a hood. I was going to split a CF hood if that helps. Thanks

why would you want one......


Anyways, im sure there are some kits out there.. check ebay

As for a split CF hood.... your probabally gonna have to make the hood yourself, in 2 different sections. I dont see CF looking good after you cut it in half

Im like 99.9% positive that you cant get a hood already split. Especially for a tib.

Your gonna have to cut it yourself. Thats why I said if you want a CF one, your probabally gonna have to make the hood yourself, and make 2 diff pieces, because cutting a CF one probabally wouldnt be good and Im sure you dont wanna try on a $500 hood. lol

Yeah, you can't cut a CF hood in half like that. Seriously, if you want to do this, just take your stock hood (or a FG aftermarket hood) to a body shop. They SHOULD be able to cut in half for you. Then just install the kit. It shouldn't be too hard. You might have to get longer tubes for the windshield washer jets, because I don't know if the stock ones (especially the pass. side one) will stretch far enough.

I can have one of the FlyRyde hoods split in half during production, and send it out with the autoloc kit as well. Obviously for more than the regular price, but I'm your only hope man

lol.
