not trying to thread jack and i know i shouldnt even be doing this.

but there is no such thing, i dont want to see people scammed and i dont think its right that you are posting a fake part.

eight08impreza man what he has may be a carbon hood but not only do they not make carbon hoods, at least sold here in the us. there is no way that he could sell such a rare part (if it even existed) for 140 bucks dude.

search google, yahoo japan auctions etc. i have found nothing. I was 99% sure they didnt make one anyway and the price kind of tips that off as well. but about an hours worth of searching and not a single thing dude.

That is a picture of the hks hood from Japan parts so it does exist. Next time search a little harder before calling someone a scammer. His part may or may not be the real deal but if the buyer is going to pick the hood up locally they can decide if they want it or not.

here is a screen shot of my search.

but like i said regardless even if it does exist ( i did say that if it did it would only be available in japan) no one is going to sell it for 140. you know that i know that everyone knows that, just trying to save him time and money bro sorry for looking out i guess.

wow, if you're not buying it, leave? I know you are looking out for other buyers etc etc, but this is legit.. if you don't want to buy it, then don't.

Here's my 2 cents:

It's pickup, so if the guy shows up and doesn't like it, phooey, he can just leave. Not like the buyer is paypal-ing then receive some paper with a drawing of a HKS hood.

Secondly, from the pictures he gave, it seems like the hood IS carbon fiber. Shoot, for all I care, $140 for a CF hood, whether HKS, PKS, zomgwtfbbqKS or not, is a good deal. CF prices are rising and everyone wants it.

"Mind your own business" isn't the most polite phrase here... but it's the first thing that comes to mind.

Bump for you.

Post pics then dude! and with proof, ill edit all my posts to "bump"...as it is right now not trying to cause drama just very weary of a 140 dollar one of a kind hks hood is all.....im sorry if this upsets you I really am but until I see proof that its real I have no reason to believe its real and that even if it is local pickup someone wont show up and have "to just take your word" that its hks. im not doubting you have a cf hood for that price just that its a real HKS hood is all...I think being a public forum I have every right to try and protect myself and others from a scam...I don’t think you can prove it is real because I don’t believe it is... because of this thread I have searched and searched and searched and found nothing I called some shops and they know nothing!

Looking at your vouches and seeing things like "EBay Short-Shifter" "Matrix Racing adjustable springs" "B&M metallic shift knob" and "Megan gauges"
Just doesn’t say in anyway that you would spend the money for a rare part that was never here in the U.S and then turn around and sell it for 140 bucks! I don’t think you are trying to intentionally rip him off maybe you just don’t know any better im not sure; maybe someone sold it to you and said the same thing and now you think you have a real "hks carbon fiber hood"

All I know for sure is that what you have is not what you say it is regardless man, as stated before im just looking out for the people that don’t know any better. This may not be my "job" but I have been scammed and would absolutely love it if someone would look out all the time like this....

So once again sorry to all for trying to help, hope you sell the hood for what it really is. If you will admit to your error I will edit all my posts and leave it alone until then I will do my best to make sure people know the truth.

:mad: you are the bigest f-ing jerk I have seen on here yet. it is pick up only so the buyer will be able to decide if it is what the seller says it is. Hell I am in socal and would like to look at it just so I can post on here that it is. leave this guy alone and go find another site to post on. you f-ing prick:furious:

Saucy, sorry to add more BS to your thread good luck with the sale.

By looking at the above "HKS CF Hood" picture...
It is obvious the scoop and the hood is one piece

A "HKS" sticker on a CF doesn't really mean that it is a CF hood manufactured by HKS...

Its like putting a STi emblem on a 2.5RS doesn't mean that it is a STi

I have never seen the hood in person, just judging by picture of both threads
I could be wrong (most likely not)

Anyways, $140 for any CF hood is good deal, for HKS hood is too good to be true

i can tell you 100% that it isnt real...i have been in contact now with a couple representatives of hks that i know from honda-tech and a few other forums! i thought twice about posting this for fear that more people would be get mad at me about calling a scam, but so be it! ive been scammed and i would hate to buy this thing as a person who doesnt know any better and start claiming to have the only "hks" carbon hood on a street driven car in the us if at all anywhere in the world.

still 140 is a good deal for a carbon hood of any brand just wish he would admit its an ebay brand already is all. :(

HKS or No HKS im gonna pick that hood up in the morning just to shut your *scam alert* ass up.

HELLO CF shortage...have you looked at prices. For 140 I can resurface and buff that thing like Pam Anderson on her honeymoon :)

Saucy is ^up there in the NASIOC ranks I highly doubt he would put his credibility on the line for a CF hood that you would see b4 you commit to buy....now if it was shipping only...THENNNNNNN ask questions.
