Carbon Fiber Hood?
Does anyone know where I can find a carbon fiber hood for my Alero? Because alerostyle.com is no longer in business, please let me know if you know where to purchase one. Thanks!

Sounds good. Hopefully an OEM hood with no scoops.

Not everyone will agree with that and will want a different type of hood that others won't agree with, it's been discussed before. Best bet is to do OEM carbon fiber.

There are no cardon fiber hoods available for our cars anymore. Looking wont help, it will just frustrate you. If one does get produced again I'm sure you will here about it here first.

We will DEFINATELY do a carbon OEM hood. As far as the other hoods go: Because of the dissagreement on styling, we're just going to make one that we think looks good and represents our style. That way if you like it you buy it, if not, then you don't have to worry about it.

A hood with heat extractor style vents like this would be pretty cool:
