I want something that looks like stock but with a taller cowl

u can buy hood scoops and put it on the stock hood if u want

i think the stock one looks fine myself...if anything get a carbon fiber hood so that ur car is lighter

Look at the thread from language barrier. It has some really nice aftermarket body parts there. Now if someone could only find out how to read the site...lol

Im looking around for a fiberglass hood (im not paying 600$ for a hood), because im trying to get some weight off the car. my goal is to get at least 150-200 lbs off the car. (86)

Switching hoods wont save 150 200 pounds/ might be 20 pounds lighter, cool hood on ebay for sale!

from what ive been reading, even a gutted out mk3 is still a heavy pig, it sounds like your better off upgrading the turbo and raising the boost for more power with the supporting mods.....

i think www.carbonfibrefx.com has hoods also
