Theres actually a thread around here that a member purchased the GTR scoops and put them in the Zs hood. Very sharp :driving:

Well we have had the power to make carbon fiber hoods for the past two months but nobody has wanted one. Mainly for the reason we haven’t had the funds to produce one and sell it after.

The rear hatch we still need somebody with a 370Z to stop by so that we can make the mold of the frame (which would take a few days).

Lastly, we are working on that vented hood prototype (we posted a thread in this forum area).

How would a CF Hatch work - I mean, would it be just the exterior, or have the interior parts as part of the whole product?

Same question relating to the back window - how well will it hold up, not leak, etc? Glass or Plexi/Lexan? What about the struts, won't they be WAY STRONG with a hatch that weighs half as much?

What about the rear spoiler on the sport models? 3rd brake light?


Just curious how all that plays together....

Do any of you know how much the aluminum hood actually weighs or could you give an approximate measure? I am thinking about a CF hood, particularly Seibon's with a vent for cooling, so I need to know how much the aluminum or the Carbon Fibre hood weighs.
