does that hood have the checkerboard looking design(or whatever you may want to call it)

I don't think I've seen a carbon fiber hood without that checker look, is it possible to get one withut it?

I think he means the cross -hatching look you get from the CF weave.

IF that is the case, just paint it... or save some money and buy fiberglass.....

I'll sell my 240 to you,

This may be a dumb question, but do those vents actually do anything?

Oh yesss.My friends brother has a "monster hood"(which is similiar in design to the Crux hood) on his Civic,you can REALLY feel the heat coming out.CF too so it take some weight off the front of the car.

Form and function:bigthumb:

is fiberglass lighter than carbon fiber and is there any other advantages to either of them besides weight?

I want a 91-93 240, if you had one of those I'd buy it :iceslolan and if I had any money

slix, try that place, they got a carbon fibre hood for 400 bux for the 200sx.

i believe its the same car.

thx ralphcare- that looks pretty close. (and should fit 240sx too)

just a thought- maybe i could modify some z3 fenders and put em on a vented cf hood. With some molding,painting,etc it would probly look pretty close to the crux.
