Default --LG Motorsports Carbon WC Hood *CHRISTMAS SPECIAL*--



LG Motorsports now is proud to bring you their new C6 Carbon Hood.


Taken from our years of road racing; these light weight carbon hoods add function and style to your C6, GrandSport, or C6 Z06! These vented hoods reduce weight (up to 24 lbs), improve cooling, and add downforce to the nose.


We offer the hood in one of two styles:
  • Bolt on using all of your factory hardware
  • Pin on, which will require the use of hood pins and does not use the hinges.




Both styles are in stock and ready to ship!

Call your sales person for more details today!!!!



SALE PRICE NOW THROUGH DECEMBER 26, 2012 ONLY
PIN ON $1795.95
OEM BOLT ON $2595.95

That baby looks like it'll move some air!

Any special pricing on a non-carbon model?

Beautiful Hood! Does this hood come bolt-on ready, no body work/paint required? Any data to support the heat extraction properties of this hood? Just wondering how much this hood helps in red'ucing IAT's. I know it will help but to what extent? I am a big fan of this hood. While I"m not ready to pull the trigger on a purchase today, perhaps in the early spring.

If you wanted to leave it bare carbon, no work would be required at all. Now if you wanted to paint some or all of it, yes it would have to be sanded, primed and painted.

The race cars, when we used this type of hood, also used an intake very similar to the Carbon Super Ram I posted earlier as well, which is going to do most, if not all of the IAT temp reduction because it seals the incoming air to the engine from any other heat sources.




The hood is there to pull out hot under hood air, making the radiator more efficient at it's job as well as removing built up pressure reducing lift on the nose of the car. In some cases a good louvered hood such as this can make as much, if not more than a splitter on creating negative lift on the nose
