Driscoll's2     $ 0.00 DEFTRacing CF vented hood Anyone considering replacing there OEM hood with a Deftracing.com hood needs to take a look at what they will be receiving.

Deftracing






From my calculations the DEFTRacing hood is:
53 3/4 across just above the headlights
31 7/8 between the headlights
33 3/16 right down the middle

The original hood dimensions:
53 7/8 across just above the headlights
32 1/8 between the headlights
33 7/16 right down the middle

EXPECT A HOOD THAT WILL HAVE A 1/2 GAP THE WHOLE WAY AROUND

Some background on the car.
94T
28,071 original miles
No accidents
All original factory paint

In a nut shell response from Deftracing...
"I have talked to fabrication about this in the time you sent the other one, and that is how the hood is"
"it is not a manufacturing problem"
"Unfortunately we do not agree with you"

Send it back in the original packaging undamaged to receive a refund for the purchase value of the hood ($320)

So mathmatically I have
$320
$165
+ install = $600

Now they want ME to pay $165 to ship it back to receive the original $320 I paid for it.

You can see in the above picture where the passenger hood hinge had to be modified to match the incorrectly manufactured bolt locations.

black94t     $ 0.00 yep, you're not the first DEFT customer with fitment issues. I want a carbon fiber hood so bad but never had enough confidence in the company to get it right. $320 is cheap for a hood though. Sucks man. sorry to hear. I'll end up saving the full $1500 for border's authentic Kevin - 94t MR2 - 93 Celica

I'll end up saving the full $1500 for border's authentic I had a Madpsi hood that fit well and looked good...however the "D" ring would not line up the with factory hood latch.

I figured hood pins would get me by and they did....untill I forgot to latch them while in a hurry.
