i sure think it is. if i was in your position. i would totally do that. in fact. i was sort of hoping that someone would ruin my hood so i could a new one for my GP. haha.derf said:The hood is starting to grow on me.
I don't think it's worth $825. But consider this: I had a little "incident" (see http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1658 for details). I finally got the insurance check. They covered $480 (or near that) for a stock replacement hood. Would it be worth the $345 difference to get this hood on a silver car?
I doubt that there will be a weight savings, fiberglass hoods tend to weigh about the same as the steel ones.svede1212 said:i don't think it looks too bad. i would like to see how it's coupled to the air intake and how much of a weight savings it would be
I still don't think that's unreasonable if you want a custom hood. Again, I like the plain hood, but this custom hood looks really nicely done, in my opinion.svede1212 said:... so we're looking at $1,100 and then you still have to get it painted.
