Definitely not the same hoods not nearly as nice of a design...IMO

[tman4024]

They say the hoods are still in development for our jeeps. The website might just be out of date I'm not sure

[robpp]

that site says ourt hoods are in dev for the last 2 years. they arent making anything.......

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

Please don't put a Trans Am replica hood on a Jeep. :p I'll try and touch base with Paulie Pauls!

[TeamCherokee06]

That hood looks awesome,I hope they start making more of these.

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

A lot of money has been invested. So I don't see why the manufacturer would scrap the mold.

[robpp]

I have been begging Paul. he told me his has been real busy, something with school. and other stuff.

but go ahead chris. i agree about the mold. maybe it was the initial price that the vendor cant meet. I would pay about 1500 for a CF one. Maybe 1200 for a fibergalss but i prefer a CF.

[Dylans3960ccs]

how much weight did that lose?

boo fiber glass for the loss ,fiber glass heavy unless it's very thin ,but you could make it your self and use your stock hood to make a mold so if it breaks all you have to do is just put some fiber glass in there top it off with some resin let it dry an whala! - new hood.:)

heres a better picture i found pretty sweet http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j72/Paulie23/IMG_1027.jpg

[ducks unlimited]

is that other site gonna be pissed when they find out what i did, but they wont know how did it :lol::lol:

[Scottina06]

that pic is posted on other sites to

[ducks unlimited]

i want thats hood

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

I know his address and email, but not his number. :p

[Marlon_JB2]

Why would anyone want a steel hood?

The current WK hood is made out of lightweight aluminum. Steel will increase weight and raise precious 1/4 mile times. :p

EDIT: Just saw their "in development" hood is still in development. And sounds like it has been for several years. :D Vaporware. But my point still stands...

[hawkman996]

I like the hood. Especially the carbon fiber hood on Paulie's silver jeep.

Tom's painted version looks good too. I wonder what the weight difference is from stock to fiberglass to carbon?

[Dylans3960ccs]

I think that the painted hood would look better on an older SRT.

[robpp]

it looks as if these ARE going to be produced.

there is a thread on the red site. Paul is making a list. send him a PM over there if you are interested!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

I sent him over here. It would probably be easier for him. Or maybe not. :p

[tman4024]

The only problem, what about windshield washer squirters. This is my DD so it would be really nice to have them.

[robpp]

you get some from another chrysler car they mount right on the wiper themselves.

or RAIN-X

[robpp]

I sent him over here. It would probably be easier for him. Or maybe not. :p

agreed. i gave him a link in my email about my info.

Meh. That's a minor detail. :D

[Tom@MHP]

Those are actually WS6 replicas :p Just want you to be better informed, lol!! (Trans Ams are different than Trans Am WS6s ;) )

And the RamMedic hood is SOFA-KING SIIICK!!! I tried contacting Paulie, too and never heard back from him either.

[nifty97z]

When I was talking with Paulie about the hood, he said they were working on installing the washer jets on the backside (rear/closest to windshield) of the hood.

[dreamer1213]

What is the red site?

[Scottina06]

[08Hemi]

nice hood Tom...that thing really makes the front of the SRT8 even more aggressive!!! So is it fully-functional?
Brad

[Tom@MHP]

Thanks Brad, It's fully functional it that it lets air flow thru it.

Tom.

[Scottina06]

medic is here now and the fiberglass hoods are $850 plus shipping

[mandan007]

nope seriously....too much $$$$$ for me

You know you want one!!!

I have the carbon fiber hood on order. Checked with an auto body shop for the cost of painting a fiberglass hood to match my brilliant black. Would end up being a hundred bucks more than the cf.

[Scottina06]

yeah i do...but $850 plus $150 shipping plus paint and ceramiclear=performance mods for my slow ass 4.7

Remember the cartoons that depicted a little devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other? Both trying to persuade you one way or the other? Well, I'm like one of those and they both say to do it!!!!

[Scottina06]

LOL......Ill just stay out of this and Tom' thread----

[Tom@MHP]

I had the same thing happen to me.:D

It makes me laugh how much Tom and my Jeeps look alike. Right down to the antenna. Guess I need to get a hood and have it painted to further cement the twin-ship between our Jeeps. LOL

[Tom@MHP]

Jason, I was thinking the same thing. Ported intake manifold and TCM and we'll have pretty much the same mods. BTW: I can fix you up with them.:D:D:D

Oh and don't you worry Tom - you will be seeing that order from me soon. Just waiting for you to cut me a screaming deal on it like you have with everything else. I need to send my intake tube back to BWoody and have it re-powdercoated so that it will match the manifold when I get that. AND, I need to paint those calipers you sent me and get those swapped out!

I've just been so busy lately, and it's not even work anymore. I just moved into a new place so I am still getting settled in.

We need to talk and catch up sometime. Give me a call when you're free, big guy!

Tom, why haven't we talked lately. Have you moved on to better friends?

I need an intake... Maybe that will peak your interest....

And that damned SRT logo on your lower valance. Throw that in on the intake purchase and you've got a deal.

[KidFresh5.7]

how much will a CF run me? Im hoping to sell the rims on my jeep now(if anyones interested), get the black 20'' vipers, black srt8 grill, would look killer with a cf hood

[Scottina06]

$1150...plus $25 box...plus shipping....I think...LOL

[HEMIBeast]

It's around 1300.00 including shipping
