I am really kind of leaving the Tuner type look and taking off ALL the CF on my car since I am going more JDM/Vip Style these days.

I need to check my OEM Hood for damage but if it's in good shape I am planning to remove the hood bra from my CF hood, put it on my OEM one and re-attach it to my car. The Red CF hood I have just does not flow with my theme anymore.

I already have the hood off and sporting the OEM one. Shipping is just way too complicated and expensive for an item like this.

Here are some pics :) some very old ones as well.

The price will be pretty reasonable. About $75 pick up, $100 dropped off at your doorstep local.

The red CF matches Black Cherry Pearl.....almost perfectly good luck w/sale
btw, I like and would buy if you were local!

Yeah it dues your right. On my car in the direct sunlight it was a great contrast when it shined as well. Thanks for the bump and I hope some one can call it home. I dunno the 1st thing about how I would ship this to you dude or I would try.

Bump for sale!

Bump for a great hood from a great guy!

DAMN !! If you would ship I would, depending on shipping cost..LOL ! Jump on this NOW !!!!

Thanks Eddie and Y would ship but I would have to take it to a shipping place that will pack it and make sure it sure to you safe. I can pretty much say it will be a hefty shipping price. I would say add another $100+

Thing is I really do not want to deal with any issues like it breaking during shipping and all that legal BS and haggling for them to refund me, unhappy customer etc. etc. etc.

It's really up to the buyer :) I will add $$ to the shipping cost for insurance. I will even insure it for the price I paid when I first got it. but I would also need to find the receipt....

Still tempted..what do you think it weighs..I might do some checking shipping...

It's not very heavy. The issue is it's size and shape.

True..but UPS stores if you drop something off..they will package them for you....

Also..where did you get and what wing is that on your xA.

I got it at a local shop. I got lucky with that :) The wing is one out of like 5 ever made. Milezauto made it :)

I've tried 3 e-mail addresses for Milezauto..do you know how to get in touch with them ??

Your not gonna get one. Like I said there were only like 5 made and put on cars. I got the last one and it was hardly even finished. Sorry.

DANG !!!

yeah your about 2yrs behind on those days :) I got lucky :)

I would sell it for a ridiculous amount of $$ :)

I BET !! LOL !!

Hey by chance do you know what size wheels that are on the black xA that the guy built to look like the FAB customs xA..I posted and asked him but no answer so far, I am doing the fab kit and going with 18's and just wondering if I will have to drop it to take up any wheel gap.

You should pm me :) Getting to be a priv. convo rather than a CF hood sale :)

If you want me to try and find a shipping Price I will by the way. Just need to make the time to being it down.

Hey all the quicker I get this sold the quicker I can get some stuff I need to finish my car :) WHy I am willing to let it go for so cheap.

So WOW I took off the hood Cowl/Bra and hehe there is def some fading on this hood. Nice and red where the hood cowl was :) I will post pics up later. I forgot my camera in the car.

So I will assume the one that wants it will be ok with that :) I will take off $50

I can say an estimated $250 shipped. $125 local pick up.

bump! i would have driven for it but 3k miles is a bit far.

I love your car! i don't say that about many xA's, but your is sick OP

I would be all over this if distance was only half .... you want to drive to Texas?

Bump still available :)

I might have to pick that up.

I might have to pick that up.

Yes you might :) it's siting in the corner at my Mom's house :)

F.Y.I. your steering wheel is AWESOME!!!

you willing to meet half way? im in the bay area
i want to pick that up for my girls xA

Hmmm where would that be? I mean the half way point? I wonder if there is any good photo area.

That's a good question.... Hhhmmmmmmm!!!! Well it kind of depends on which freeway you want to take, I'm not too sure tho.

Well this coming weekend hit me up. I will start lookng around for places of interest. I really need to have a good reason to go up north and the trip is gonna in the end cost me a bit. Way past a trip to Oxnard.

Montana De Oro looks great, but I hear they put up fences on the cliffs.

That's cool just take your time, I completely understand where your coming from!

Yeah but "Time" is allot of the issue as well. Like I said lets get back to this after Friday to see what we can come up with :)

Keith.

I think it would be better to just buy a hood cowl like I had on it. You can re-finish the entire hood I believe but I have no idea if the color issue is deep into the CF itself.

Finding a Hood Cowl will be difficult and the wait time to get it will be about 5-7 weeks. I can find one for you if you like.

Bump on this mo fo!

lol! Bump!

Holiday price cut $75!!!!!!! I really want to get this out of the garage :)

$100 to drop it off at your doorstep local, 50miles max.

bump for a cool guy

bump, if only it was blue or silver lol maybe paint over it hhhhmmm...

lol go for it :)

:)

lol! Still avail...

There's only one person i know who has a red carbon fiber hood.. an that's James! hows it going man... havent seen you in a while. i don't know if you remember me but you might remember my wife's xa. she also has the salsa red, an she won at a bilistics show aginst you a while back. An also my mom bought some rims from you, that she still has on here car. well anyway that hood looked sik on your car why are you geting rid of it?http://www.scionlife.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1980&stc=1&d=1273126299

Been sitting in the cellar for months now.

If it wasn't for shipping, I would own that hood. I think it would rock on my car.

Time and time again I come back to this thread...what's the installation process like for a hood?

Should be done with two people for various reasons. For example holding the other side when screwing in the bolt that attaches the hood to the car. I did not ask for help and scratched my paint on the fender. Talk about frustrating.

You also might have to adjust a bit for perfect fit. I had to to and did fine.

No shipping FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE to the first one that can pick it up from my Mom's when she is home.

No longer driving the xA so I just wanna get rid of it to some one that will use it.

Please close thread!

Ah, understood. I can still forward that info to you. Might take a little digging though.
