Don't know anything about this site yet but I thought I'd tell everybody so they could check it out WWW.feathercarbon.com.

Very light weight... I don't think you could use it with factory hinge setup. Depends what you want.

Been doing some reading about the fearthercarbon hoods alot of mixed opinions but alot better than ups22 and I think you'll have to ask about the hinges, at least there's another to choose from.

They make fiberglass hoods also and you have to use pins to hold it on, no hinges.

Feather carbon hoods are the shitr hands down. Way better than the up22 junk!

Here is a pic of my feature carbon hood with 10 days fasteners. Weights 9 lbs. Didn't require any body work.

That hood look's great, Is it fiberglass or is it the carbon one? Been calling them alot lately but they are on vacation right now and was wanting too find out how much the fiberglass one weights. Is that the 4" cowl?

It's their 4 inch cowl in fiberglass. It weights 10lbs with days fasteners and paint on it.

Really light!!!

Thank's, Talked to Thomas at feathercarbon early this week and called back today to order one like yours but he hasn't called back yet. That's alot of difference in weight from a stock one, thank's again.

Just ordered the feathercarbon hood for my luv and should be here some time next week, Will let everyone know how it look's.

how much was it? and shipping?

Same as there site said it was 200.00 for the hood and 98.32 shipping to where I live, That's the fiberglass one and they already had it in stock and should ship Monday and should have it by Thursday.

Haven't got the hood yet because of the snow, but talked too Thomas and we talked about making fenders and he said if anyone in the Viginia area had one to drop by they would be glad to make them.

Hood finally came in and I really like it, It is VERY LIGHT and as soon as I can get it home from work it's going on. I'll take some pics and post them up.

Congrats Smokey! and yes, pics please!!

Talked to Thomas from Feathercarbon today for quite awhile and he didn't know about this site until our chat the other day. If anybody has some fenders he said he would be glad to pay the shipping so he could start making us some fiberglass fenders or any of us guy's is welcome to call him. I don't have any worth a crap but I'm going to start hunting hard to find some.

OK just got around to trying the new hood today and all it needs is four hood pins and I'm ready to go. I'm going to have it painted along with the truck but the fit is spot on and it bought out a new personality in my truck. I'll take some pics next weekend when I get home from work. Talked to Thomas today and he has located some fenders to make molds from and if the quality on the fenders is like the hood I'll finally get rid of that dang rust at the bottom of my fenders.

Keep us posted on the fenders!

A 1 piece tilt front end would be nice too if that could be put together.
