anyway...heres a pic again of what I posted previously in this thread......someone else's car...




No, I knew we talked about it but I couldn't remember if the high rise one you have is the one on the car. That's why I said you really don't need that hood and it should be in the hands of an owner that put under it what it rightfully should have under it.

WHAT?

Its "rightfully " on my Vette for looks...
Not just my opinion...

Just in case you missed this also...

By Patrick Morgan- June 14, 2017

"Folks who love the C5’s looks are steadfast in their beliefs," but we think this hood is a wonderful improvement" .

"When we debate which generation of Corvette is the best looking, the results are always polarizing, but we have noticed one constant. Fans of the C5 Corvette always point out that it has the most slippery and smooth shapes of all generations of Corvette. And they are right. So to alter any lines on this car, it takes careful consideration to not make something look out-of-place. Yet one Corvette Forum member has found an awesome way of improving the look of his C5, with a carbon fiber hood by MCM."


"High-rise hoods have been popular for years, and for a number of reasons. . But this Corvette is stock. For now at least. We think that’s okay, because it isn’t really a modification making any particular promises. Plus being made out of high quality carbon fiber, and with a functional heat extractor vent, it ticks all the right boxes for us"

Again...I got it because it really looked cool to me and it was a heat extractor and it was light weight...and I had no intentions of putting a Maggie or anything else to boost power....I'm all about looks, not speed...

Finally, PM me and make me an offer if you want to buy it...you got the bucks...

I'm with you, I added a L88 hood to my 72 Vette because of the way it looked, not because I had to because of engine upgrades. If these hoods were still being produced at a reasonable price, I would put one on my 2000, again, because I think it looks fantastic as it does on your car!

TTT for new members who have not seen this....
MCM is still the best looking hood for the C5.
