Fujimura hood?

Does anyone sell this hood in the states?

No one will have it in stock. You can order it from next level performance but there is a 3 to 7 month wait

So sexy.

2string1 03-18-2021 05:28 PM

I want one, but I think I would paint it the same color as the car.

RHD Japan has about a 2 month wait and you'd be looking at about $2200-$2300 including shipping

That actually has proper drainage compared to domestics or copies.

I would want to paint it. So what finish should I get? What is FRP Black Gel Finish? Is this really cheap plastic?
Is this place trustworthy? The price seems really good.

Frp is fibreglass. Most body kits are made of this material. If I were to get a hood, I would paint it too and that is the material I would get. What is the point of paying extra for CF if it is not going to be seen. CF is lighter, but it will still heavier then the OEM hood.
As far as I know the store is legit.

Thanks, do you know what they mean by gell coat?

Gelcoat is a liquid that hardens to form a thick, protective layer over a fiberglass surface. It's used to provide a quality finish over fiberglass. Gelcoats protect the surface from scratches and moisture damage, while also adding a shiny, smooth finish.

Thank You, I imagine you can paint over it. Right.

Does anyone know if these hoods are insulated underneath? My Z is in storage and I can't remember if it has insulation.

I guess I'm confused. Nexgun calls it a Fujimura Aero Bonnet and NextLevel Performance calls it a FUJIMURA AUTO ROCKET DANCER Bonnet. Are they both the same hood or different?

Looks the same to me

I was one of the first six people to own that hood in North America. It is a fantastic product and the fitment is spot on. The hood vented very well and has functional rain gutters, at least in with the carbon fiber hood. The hood is uninsulated and is just slightly heavier than OEM but not enough to matter. I am a fan of CF and the way it works with brilliant silver and I had a CF wing that helped balance the color out. If you are not worried about weight and want to paint it then go for the other. I kind of miss having a black hood lol.

LOL, that was six years ago when Vivid Racing did a group by on the hood. I don't think the import them anymore. It took about two and a half months which was incredibly quick as most JDM items take a minimum of three months. All bets are off on import tome right now with trade wars and COVID.

I just ordered the hood from NextLevel Performance. It's going to take around 3 months to get it. I'm going to paint it the same color as my Z. Thanks for all your help.
