Default carbon fiber or fiberglass ?

Anyone know of a company that makes a carbon fiber front end for a C4 vette or a lightweight fiberglass version of one ? THANKS Pipe

Pipe, are you looking for the hood or the whole front clip?

I picked up an aftermarket hood at Lawrence Chevrolet in Mechanicsburg, Pa. a number of years ago but can't remember who made it.

VFN Fiberglass also makes a lot of stuff for a C4.

Good luck,
Dave

Dave thanks for the reply. I'm looking for the whole front clip. I checked out VFN they got a pretty good selection of stuff. Saw some Carbon Fiber pieces wow is that stuff expensive I might just go with a lightweight fiberglass one. I gave up on the idea of changing all the hardware over to Titanium way to much money for what little I would save. Would still like to take it to Cruise Night once in awhile. I got rid of some stuff A/C, Smog Junk, Cruise Control, Heater Core and Blower Motor, Radio and back Speakers.Also have a Lexan Rear Hatch. Pipe
