Hi,
Does anyone have a lead on a source for balsa reinforced front hoods? Or if not, who is the best vendor for fiberglass and/or carbon fiber front hoods? I had a GT Racing hood in the past that I was actually pretty happy with, but I thought I'd see what's out there... -Steve |

Translog used to be the place to get them from, but since Gary Wigglesworth died, I don't know if they still do that.
