since my car is in need of paint ive been searching for a 2.5 CF cowl hood for my car (aka 95 cobra r)... so far the only cowl hoods in CF ive found are all by VIS, which is what i was wanting, but they're either 3" or they dont say the size but have the 3" hood pictured...

does anyone know where i can find a 2.5" in carbon fiber? i've looked at vis, mrbodykit, cervinis, steeda, abcexclusive and some other random sites that dont seem to have them.. can i just call vis and tell them what size?

if not, is there much weight difference in cf and fiberglass? i found a few fiberglass 2.5" cowls but im trying to shed as much weight as possible.. i also heard fiberglass is a PITA to fit..thanks for any info guys!

I was impressed with the level of quality and ease of fitment of my Cervini's 1995 Cobra R hood. It actually fit better than the stock hood did, and weighs considerably less! Don't waste your money on carbon fiber; it's not necessary for something like this.
