Default Will rent CF hood for 1 week

Heya guys. I am having trouble getting my hands on a OEM CF hood that fits well on my TC. My car is going to Consumer Electronic Show at Las Vegas January 8-12. I am waiting for BBIST to get some hoods in stock but they are not going to have one for me in time for the show.

If anybody around So Cal has a BBIST or VIS hood that I can borrow for one week for the show I'll pick it up, drop it off after the show and give you $50.

I am an honest guy with a good ammount of sponsors and good reputation in the industry. I am also a moderator for Club Lexus. Let me know if you guys can help out a fellow TC owner.

Mods: don't move this to clasifieds. this is a very SoCal specific request.

Bump for a respectable guy (I'm also on CL). . .

Unfortunately ^ has a point. It may make more sense to buy a hood and then sell it later. You might have more luck.

if it was me, i wouldn't let someone borrow a hood. if you have a good "amount of sponsors and good reputation in the industry" then i am sure you can talk to one of them.

^^^well my sponsor does not have the hoods in stock, but thanks for your very helpful input.

I just threw it out there not hoping for much anyway. I will simply have to get a hood from one of the manufacturers locally.

I'm not sure if he'll be game (or even what brand of CF hood it is), but I'll double check a local meet this Tuesday. . . I know one or two tC's have OEM style CF hoods. But quite honestly, it's going to be pretty hard to find someone willing to do it.

I'll talk to the guy tomorrow (tuesday) and I'll let you know. I think it's an OEM style CF hood. Dunno what brand.

PS, BUMP!
