iCarbon Vented M3 Style CF Hood

[thez99]

I thought they were coming back with resupplies of everything in late October??

Look at HPAutowerks site for instance, they say ICarbon is producing all of their original items again..

DTMRack still has 1 new one left for 900$ on clearance.

I am personally waiting for the SleK hood. Will have the same MSRP as iCarbon but higher quality and give you the choice of options such as weave and if you want vents or not.

Pretty sure ICarbons stuff had choice of weave as well as choice of vents out or closed.

I dunno, ive seen several distributors saying they are expecting new deliveries from ICarbon within the month, so either theyre full of shit or ICarbon is getting back in it. All i know is I sure as hell wouldnt buy a part from an 86'd company, dont care bout the cost.

I can't speak for iCarbon, but I know they don't have a website anymore.

M3 style like mine? If so, someone should get that ASAP.

... I wouldn't wait around for iCarbon. I got lucky and found all my stuff used from people so I didn't have to wait.

**********s still sells them, I just ordered my iCarbon CF hood today after seeing yours. Also picked up their iCarbon CF trunk. Hood was only $1161.95 plus shipping.

Expect a phone call because I doubt any are left in stock.

I think the one **********s sells is a little different from the OP's. Mainly the placement of the vents.

And the good news is the iCarbon website is back up

Maybe but according to iCarbons website they have got everything back up and running. They are pushing out products again to celebrate. I'll still keep my figers crossed. No phone call as of yet

[thez99]

That looks promising and all but also looks like their prices have gone way up, their diffuser and trunk spoiler have increased atleast $100 since i last saw em..

[thez99]

Honestly, if they REALLY are back in the biz and their quality will be top notch along with consistent customer service, I may give them a go for the rear diffuser and either the trunk or trunk spoiler. If I went with the trunk, I would really want it painted DSB thou, so not sure who could do that for me since I dont have a clue who to trust with that round here, specially for factory color codes.

Same kinda goes for possibly going with the perf front bumper and side skirts, love to have em, but Id want em to be painted DSB before sent to me.

On a side note, anyone with the HPF FMIC or anyone who knows have any idea what needs to be cut on the performance front bumper to install the FMIC? I had my shop do the install for mine on my M sport bumper and they said not too much was needed, is it any different for the perf bumper? I notice there is no DIYer or install notes for that bumper, just the msport..

It isn't the same hood as mine. iCarbon made two styles, M3 and GTR. You will get the GTR style as shown online. They also don't come with aerolatches, so you will have to order them seperate and cut holes.

Yep. GTR style, and the vents are not real. They are just for show.

No difference in bumpers. You do need to cut out quite a bit to fit it from what I've heard.

Yeah you guys were right, they are out of them. I called them and they were just going to give a hood and trunk "similar" to iCarbon. Cancelled my order.... sad day

[M_BYEEE]

your car is fucking awesome....color of those wheels is perfect!

[Groundpilot]

I have iCarbon hood GTR style. They were selling them with closed vents because most ppl didnt want engine bay to get wet. I used dremmel to cut vents open and they really function now the way they should. I dont even open the hood after hot track sessions. I also installed aerolatches(big PITA).
