Rob you can save 20 lbs, just leave your wallet home.:)

Toledo Hoods are 20+ lbs lighter then stock cost less, i also hear they can make whatever your/our needs and make them lighter.

Maybe call ToledoPro for a group buy.

I would want a stock looking hood and at least 40lbs savings

Pete you asked for a group buy so here you go. We would have to get him a hood to use in Las Vegas.
If we are going to do this as a group buy I would suggest the Toledo pro hood.


Carbonfiberhood , custom made from new mold

Hoods will shrink from original donor part on average 1-2mm each side so if the donor part has gap this will have more gap.

Corvette C4 Carbon fiber = $1200each

5 required to buy at once.

Turn around 3-4 months.

Thanks Rob,you are awesome.
That is a killer price.
Like i mentioned in my previous post after finding out it only saves 20 something lbs just not worth the price.

If it shaved 50 lbs i would be all over it.

Pete, You are looking at around 60# total.

The 60 lb lighter hood is this something new or are we confusing the total weight of the hood they make (60 lbs) since the OE hoods weigh 80lbs for a 20 lb savings.

Don't we have any Vegas members?
