  • Advice on hood...

    Im thinking of getting a new hood... Im going to buy a carbon fiber hood, should I find one for the gts or buy a gtr hood and run a gtr grille?
    The gts hood is built like a freakin tank... Why not go with something that looks good and is lighter?

    Here is what it looks like now..


    Are these what the gtr grille bolts to?

    Try to find a GTR hood and latch. GTS latch does not work w/ GTR hood w/o major modification.


    Yes those holes are for hooking grills up to.

          Your car looks great... I think the gtr cf hood and grill is the way to go.

          No need for hood pins?

            Get an OEM GTR hood instead, it's probably lighter than most aftermarket carbon fiber hoods anyway (and it will actually fit properly!). Most of them are made of fiberglass with a layer of carbon on top. Full carbon hoods are stupid expensive.

            An OEM gtr hood will be cheaper, too.

                Yeah, if i were to go with a CF hood i would go with the aerocatch pins... They are nice.
