Carbon fibre hood for AE92 Hatch...

Hi, I'm looking at buying a carbon fibre hood for my AE92 hatchback. I've been looking around on the internet but none of the sites I looked at have one that will fit my car.

Some of these sites haven't been updated in some time. Does anyone on here know where I can get a hood that will fit my car?

Thanks

Unfortunatly I have never seen a carbon fibre hood for the Hatchback. Don't think anybody makes them.

Thanks for this, but I can't seem to access the thread. Could you tell me where it was custom made? Thanks

I've seen C/F hoods for the AE86 GTS and the AE92 GTS on E-Bay, but not for the hatch backs.

Yeah thats the 500hp 7agte levin. It does have a front bumper, its just off in the pictures and I really doubt that the hood could be fake considering the amount of work he put into that car. Check the thread, its an interesting read

Won't fit. Fenders are different and won't fit either.

I think the combined purchase price + shipping ($500-550) is about what you are going to pay for a CF hood for any regular car.
For a model that went out of production about 17 years ago, the fact that they even make a hood for that price is good.

I am going to try and weigh my GT-S hood today and post it.
