any of you guys ever buy a fiberglass hood for your maverick? if so i'm wondering what it cost you total at the end? ie: cost of hood shipping to fix crap fiberglass hood to fit paint and any other cost
I got mine from Unlimited.....and nothing would make me happier than to see them go OUT OF BUSINESS! I cannot remember the price.........I actually recieved the hood so long after I bought it I could not remember what I gave for it. But if I payed more than $50 with the time waiting on it and then the quality of it, I payed WAAAAAAAY to much. But I do seem to remember paying around $100 for shipping to KY.
i paid $350 for mine from us body in florida. wasn't happy aout the almost $150 shipping, but min has the aero scoop molded in, quality is good. only primered it as it's on my racecar.
I think I see what you're getting at Derrick. I wonder if by the time one of these glass ones is shipped fixed and painted if your Carbon fiber unit is actually comparable in price? How much do you have into that hood?
I think I paid $350 for mine from the Maverick connection......quality was OK.....can't remember what I paid for shipping..... In the near futur i'll be looking for a carbon fiber hood for mine......
shucks.. someone did catch on... i was trying to keep it low profile.. SHHHHH! oh since its out in the open... its been long enough since i have had it and it been shot already for the mags.. and well i'm over being the one of a kind now since the freaking Year One mustang came out with a carbon fiber hood on it.... (see nov mustangs and fords and last months Hot Rod... Freakin Biters ) so i'm thinking to put these up for sale soon. the fiber glass one i had totaled about 700.00 and its still not painted. as far as what is in the CF hood now.. don't even ask.. it gotta be in the 2k plus range. but since the mold is done (where most of the cost go) i'm thinking under between 800.00 and 900.00 for production which is cheap condidering what the fiberglass cost. i can't help with the shipping cost cuz thats not gonna change.. its gonna have to be shipped by truck which most from one end of the state to the other is at least 125 bucks. also lead time on these puppys will be like at least 3 months on the short end. so would someone be intrested at around that price at 800 to 900 and if it took 3 months to get maybe 4? and thats what i'm trying to get it. so who wants one?
Pics please? Lots 'o pics. From several angles, please. All kinds of pics. Close-ups. Pics of the whole hood. Did I mention I wanted to see pics?
Im having a guy make me a carbon fiber hood, $300 decklid $300 and dorrs $500 for my vw karmann ghia. Im sure if he thought there was a market he would build a maverick hood. Ill ask him and see what he says.
