Alright, I am thinking about getting a CF hood for my car. The main reason is because my hood has tons of chips in it from rocks, and a Cf hood is cheaper than having my stock hood repainted. My question is, will the CF hood chip from the rocks? Thanks for the input

 

its possible for it to scratch .. but I think the biggest problem on CF hoods is the enormus wait

 

I got a rock chip in my CF hood. I receieved my hood within 2 weeks of ordering it

 

It won't chip, it will crack. At least that's what happened to me.

 

where do you live that has that many flying rocks? my hood has never ben hit by any rocks.

.

 

I got a little chip but its like in the clear coat. I got that little chip going down a highway and a tractor trailer threw it up after running over the ripple strips along the highway

 

I live in NJ. There are lots... I mean LOTS of potholes around my area. It's all caused by the salt from winter and little pebbles are always surrounding those potholes. Cars throw them up. There's nothing you can do except buy a bra.

 

Yep....gotta love the winter weather and crappy roads

 

Oh and the plow trucks also have a major roll in tearing up the roads.

 

oh my..... well we dont have that problem here in florida just burning hot black top..

Yea i hear ya although im from jax an there are some preatty bad roads.. Where at in fl are you from?

 

How did you manage to crack carbon fiber its ridicously hard!

 

I can believe it cracked.....my friend had a del sol with a CF hood and it cracked pretty good

 

Yeah it's not a huge crack. And it's only on the coating of it. I was pissed but i'm not too worried about it.

 

off topic but does anyone have word an a CF dual extractor for the cobalt, im still waiting for one
