One would think this is true but the past has shown otherwise. My hood was one of 4 or 5 prototypes to see if it would be profitable, obviously it wasnt. Alerostyle didn't do great either. The problem is everybody says they want something and then when it is produced they don't like it anymore or don't have the money. Long before alerostyle I actually had a small business loan to produce OEM alero carbon fiber hoods. Had a real talented smaller local carbon fiber company out of my home state of south dakota. They would keep the molds, and I would get 100 OEM hoods at roughly $170 a piece. I thought I would easily be able to sell them for $350-400 and make a real nice profit, but I decided after some long hard thinking to not go through with it...........
