were i can buy a fiberglass hood and fenders. thanks

 

You could try http://www.mariahmotorsports.com

 

japco

 

Mazdaspeed (formerly Mazdacomp)

 

stock stile fiberglass hood and fenders for street

 

you can have them made

 

any place in specific yayarx7. over were i live they dont do this.

 

Just curious:

How much does something like that cost?
Are the front 2 fenders and hood about the only thing worth switching?
What kind of weight savings can you get from that?

 

I imagine the cost would be well above a grand to have the molds and such done for a one off situation. The weight savings would depend on the thickness of the 'glass. A race car witch needs only the semblance of fenders and such would only use thin fiberglass and would save a significant amount of weight, but a street car might not save an appreciatable amount.

 

BTW I am absolutely sure somone in New York state does fiberglass for hot rods and race cars. Ask about at the race shops in the area.

 

Hey eddierotary,
I am having the stock hood made right now! Should be ready in a couple weeks, the mold is being made now. I am taking the first fiberglass hood out of it and plan on selling carbon and fiberglass hoods.......carbon=$325ish, fiberglass=$250ish???? not sure on pricing yet.....I have not got a firm price on labor and materials but it is happening right now. No fenders yet. I am building these for my autocross car http://members.cardomain.com/7heaven

 

or you can make them yourself.

 

there is that

 

I'm am experimenting with Carbon Fibre right now. Planning to do my interior trims and center console. Hoping to work on a hood with a vent like the mazdaspeed on FD for the rad and intercooler air to come out of the hood, remember this is not a scoop, it's a reverse scoop.
