Re: carbon hood

Yes, it has been posted before. I think the consensus was that it is butt ugly.

Re: carbon hood

you know i posted this when this hood first came out and everyone thought it was ugly, I will be posting some updated pictures of my turck in the next couple days that will change alot of peoples minds, not only about the carbon fiber hood but also lowered titans too : )) first off the production version of this hood is functional (the scoop is open) and that ugly As* paint color and scheme dont do it justice.

The great white titan .....coming to titan forums soon.....

Re: carbon hood

Is it a carbon hood or just an overlay?

Re: carbon hood

that glassworks is nice, and if its all fiberglass, will save some weight for better performace/mileage.

Too bad they didnt use an aluminum hood on the titan like they do on the altima. Its really light.

Re: carbon hood

Our hood is so small the weight savings can't be that much.
