are there any vendors on here that deal in anderson composite hoods?
 
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1997-2004-C...M/312020734567

i'm digging this hood but would rather buy through a vendor on here than random on ebay. anyone here a vendor?

I believe juiced motorsports is a vendor, rdp store used to be but they dropped anderson composites as far as I know... I too am interested in this hood, maybe we could get a group buy going?

Has Vette Nuts posted anything on the MCM hood since they bought the molds?

neutron82 01-18-2019 08:25 PM

Can't blame him...
He would but it would be very expensive to make and the cheapskates that want one would not fork up the dough in order for him to make a fair profit...thats the holdup....just saying :leaving:

I did get 1 quote from a vendor on here.

JOSHUA LEE <merakiautoworks@gmail.com>

The OE hood we can do for $1249 shipped.

The TM hood would be $1449 shipped.



pretty good pricing IMHO. i'm a little hesitant because i have yet to see this hood on something... but i really like it... I'm contemplating leaving it raw since my side skirts and splitter are raw.

there was a guy awhile back that put one on his car and surprisingly it fit really well, I'll try to find the thread later

I thought anderson composites was supposed to be decent

neutron82 01-21-2019 06:27 PM

from what I've seen they seem to be pretty good quality

here's the thread, https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ese-hoods.html

I have that hood, but I never put it on the car. The frame of the hood got cracked towards the back of the hood but the skin is fine. I never did return it. Anyone want to buy it?

if you were closer i'd be all over it. i can't imagine you want to ship that thing.

We have dropped selling anything from anderson, the wait times are anywhere up to 6 months and this is un acceptable to us and our customers, they promise the items to come faster than that but theres always a reason for a delay, i would possibly look at other options before spending your hard earned cash sir

were there quality issues or just wait time issues?

i don't know of anyone else doing these style hoods except carbon creations.

only ever had a couple of quaility issues but the problem was terrible service terrible delivery times and they would totally lie to their dealers and direct customers

i would make a call direct to them first and get a name and confirmed delivery time before you give any one any money, i refunded our last 4 orders because customers were not being told the truth and were waiting 4 months, its not good business so we removed all of their items from our online store and dropped them

I appreciate it. the car's going to be in storage until april or so anyway. but ya, that sounds terrible. I'm not sure what else is out there... everyone hates on carbon creationz for quality... and i really like the heat extractor style.
