Hey ya'll, been searching and looking around on here and can't find out if anyone knows where I can get a non-cf hood for my 05 Lancer ES. My wife wants one painted to match, she does not like cf. I saw accolade made one but they said they're no longer doing them. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

 

there are none. just cut wholes in the one u have now, and paint it.

 

get the evo 7 style and paint it

 

Who sells the evo 7 style? I haven't been able to find any hoods but the cf. i am getting cf for mine, but my wife wants fg painted. thanks 4 the help though

 

you could buy the CF evo style hood and just paint over it, if u really dont want the 'mixmatched" color w/ your car's color. i personally wouldnt paint over CF. i want everyone to know i paid a pretty penny for it! But then again, THEY'll KNOW its CF once they lift up the hood and see that it weighs nothing.

 

chris i agree w/ you bro, but this is my wifes hood not the one for me and you know how women are. lmao. j/k ladies. i've been told paint don't stick real well to cf though.

 

i'm sure any auto body shop that's respectable will have no real problem painting it.

 

im painting mine soon.

 

so it looks like u have the option of painting a cf hood or painting a cf hood, ir painting a cf hood, or option 4 of just saying tough noogies.

 

lol, just scuff the clear, shoot the color, and re-clear, sticks like any other auto paint would/should.

 

he doesnt have the hood yet dan....i think....


EDIT: ok i just reread the first post and maybe he does have a hood that could work like what TeamAccolade said, my bad.

 

yeah, just do that. paint the cf hood. ive thought of doing it myself. if ever i can afford one. lol.

 

how come? .. going for the sleeper look ?

 

even if he doesn't i was just saying how easy it was to do...

 

if your looking for a stock hood kinda look with a vent then look at my web page.
