Fiber Images CF Hood Order
Im still trying to get these orders for the Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hoods. They should be ready to ship in about a week. So, now out of all the e-mails I got for people wanting them, I need to get the orders actually in! I've got 10 of these being made & I've only had 1 person pay for a hood. I had more than 20 people say they wanted the hoods and now, only 1 person truelly commited. So, I need to get your orders in for these!! I got them made, now I've just got to sell them! Black CF hoods or the Red/black, blue/black, or red/black

Regular CF hood is 620.00 shipped in the US
the Red, Blue, or Yellow Keval weaves are 720.00 shipped. The only extra fees would be if you paid with paypal. These prices include all shipping fees within the US. Weight on this hood is probably 12-15 pounds.

If you love the Bead Crafts (beading or jewelry making), Fabric Crafts (home decor, quilting, sewing, embellishing, or tailoring), Paper Crafts (calligraphy, papermaking, rubber stamping, or scrap booking), or Yarn Crafts (crochet, hand knitting, machine knitting, needle-arts, spinning and dyeing, or weaving) you’ve come to the right place.

Damn it get them to make a hood for the 99-00's I'm getting pissed here......all this talk of the new body style yet the 1st style 3rd gen is already lighter and just as fast as the new ES and we know that the ES and MP3 run the same just about due to the 17 inchers on the MP3 it negates the extra 10 HP Just like the extra 200 lbs negates the extra 8 horses from teh 2.0L compared to the 1.8L and I've driven my friends P5 and the 2.0 doesn't rev as fast as the 1.8 IMO. Somone get out there and get a CF hood for the 99-00!!! Mitch????

depending on what my mazda dealer has to say about giving me the money to paint my hood for the carbon fiber hood rather than actually painting it, i might be interested in getting one. it would be great if they were just a bit cheaper though. $550 or $500 would be a nice price. hell, i might end up getting one eventually anyways. just might be a little while.

Im still needing these orders. Only 4 of the 20 or so originally interested have come through with their orders. Come on guys, I ordered up 10 of these things based on the response I had. So let me know. I'll also take deposits on these to hold 1 for you. But I cant hold it too long.

Today Fiber Images said shipping on the 2001-2002 Hoods shoud start shipping a week from Friday. So, those 4 that have ordered should have them hopefully in 2 weeks. And anyone else interested in the hood, e-mail me. I've still got plenty.

Did you have 10 hoods made without having 10 Pre-orders? I would like to get one but need more money...hopefully you'll still have 'em later on down the road or could get one made if I wanted it.

I've actually only had 4 people pay for the hoods. But I went ahead & commited to 10 so my fiber images dealer put the order through & Fiber Images started working on it. Now, my FI dealer are good guys & they put that through based on the fact that I had about 20 people wanting hoods. And so far, they are fine that I've only got 4 orders (have 2 other people that Im just waiting on money from!) but I've got a feeling that if I dont get these 10 sold quickly, I'll have a couple of expensive carbon fiber water skis! But I dont think that will be a problem. I do want to sell these 10 ASAP but for those of you that cant manage the cash now, these will be available from here on out. It wasnt a 10 production kind of deal. Now that the mold is finished (which is the slow expensive part for FI) I can have them made at any time. But dont think that means you can hold off!! I need these 10 sold! Gotta keep a good standing with my dealer & FI because I want some other CF stuff made like the front lips & eyelids & engine covers & stuff.

The Eyelids will look like that. Front lip something along the lines of what Rishie just got in from AutoEXE. I've already got a company that makes the lip that the MP3 has (which is more of a rubber bumper type thing isnt it?) And I would love to get an engine cover like the MP3 but made in Carbon Fiber or the Kevlar weave.
