Anyone know who sells these if the mold is still available? I have done searches and tried PM'ing ShinobZ but have had no luck. I see that a few member have them but didn't see the actual website to order them or a final price just random comments about personal installs. I would be very appreciative to any info thanks guys

The guy who remanufactured these was( I forgot his name)acp at Corvette Race bodies

Maybe that will help get you closer to your goal:

I thought the guy who made these went out of business?? If there are more around, I'd love to find one.

The way I read and understand it is this:
Yes,the guy went out of business
One member(as stated above shinobz,or something close to that) purchased the mold from the original owner or manufacturer
He started a thread asking if anyone was interested in a group purchase of the hood

Many responded,and after a lot of research,had Kerry Hitt of ACP manufacter a hood for those that responded

From that point on....I don't know what has happened
However,Kerry Hitt at ACP may be your missing link to the mold or owner

Somebody needs to get busy here if they want one

If memory serves me right, they were between 1700-1900 bucks. I'm pretty sure you can still get one, you will just have to special order it from either Shinobiz or Kerry @ ACP.

Send a PM to Arnel "AVB" he'll be able to point you in the right direction.
