[meanrick1969]

Can you guy's tell me a place to order a evo style hood for my 01 galant online?

[Ghost Beat]

are you looking for a evo carbonfiber or a regular fiberglass one? as for the carbon fiber one look in the group buy section as for the fiberglass one i belive or you can also ge teh cf one here as well here's the link ----->http://www.erebuni.net/accesscustom/mitsugalant99.htm ('http://www.erebuni.net/accesscustom/mitsugalant99.htm')<-----

[meanrick1969]

whatever is better?

[Ghost Beat]

well i have a carbon fiber one sitting behind me carbon fiber is lighter stronger and also a bit more expensive.. depends on you realy if you want the cf and are willing to dish out a little extra thats kewl if not and you want just a regular one wich is perfectly all right as well in the end it just depends on you and what you want..

[meanrick1969]

i guess i'll go with the carbon fiber one, do they fit good? where can i buy one online? i only can use a creditcard

[meanrick1969]

What is the difference between the Erebuni #651hoodcf and the #113hoodcf? they look the same and cost the same?

The CF hoods currently out there are not made for the US spec Galant. They are made for the JDM Galant. They fit a little weired. If you are willing to wait there is a GB going on in the GB section that is supposed to be developed for the US spec Galant and will not have all the problems that we had with the VIS hood.

a warning about the erebuni hoods:

they are made to fit the jdm spec galants so there will be gaps and u'll have fitment issues. u wont be able to just remove your regular hood and bolt on the erebuni, u'll have to take it to a shop to get it properly fitted

[meanrick1969]

Thanks for the heads up, Im going to waite for somthing that will fit my car good.

Can anyone who has an Erebuni hood tell me just exactly what gaps there are and what adjustments need to be made for proper fitment? Thanks in advance!

[pinoyesv6]

since the erebuni hoods are molded off the j spec cars. well there are some gaps. here goes some pics i got from ebay...

Talk to ChromeGalant you may be able to pursue him to give up his.

[Dave@SE]

So basically theres a small gap on the sides and above the headlights?

:shock:

i got the vis racing one too i havent put mine on yet but judging from those pics if i had the choice to id prolly buy it again that little a gap wouldnt realy change my mind.. just my 2 cents

[hsinya]

personally i think that gap looks really nasty, outlawzcc has some pics of the vis hood on his car at better angles and u can really see the gap.

what i see is the hood not closing down all the way, its like 1/4 of an inch raised above where it suppose to sit, like when you pop open the hood, and its sitting on the latch where u can slide your fingers down to press on the safety latch thingy under the hood

to me it gives it a kind of a flimsy, "its about to fly off at any time" look

just my opinions https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif

Those pictures of the Galant there is missing the weather strip. That will take care of the gap between the headlights and the hood. Here is the link to my Yahoo. Don't mind the cracks. That was because of shipping but there are photos that show the gapping issues.

Yep thats me, Ive spent about six grand on the galant in the past three weeks trying to get it ready for the summer. Now im thinking of a hood but if you know me then you know how anal i am with my car and a hood has got to fit perfect or forget it.

[ChromeGalant]

$6000? What have you done to it soo far? Got any pics?

I would like to see some pictures too.

Jason

[meanrick1969]

I do have pictures but i have no clue on how to put them online, as far as what i got into my galant its not all that much, but what i have costs alot of cash. Hell the audio/video and the wheels is about six grand right there, add the basic bolt on stuff, exhaust, suspesion, and other stuff it's more like eight or nine grand into the car.

[ChromeGalant]

So what do you have..

You must have a tight ass stereo setup.. if you spent $6000 on rims and stereo/video..

Email me the pics and I'll host them..

Hell..it i had 6+ K then i woulda just forgotten about the looks and went for straight forced induction.

[galantv600]

If you think about it... cf is a lil bit more expensive.. but when you buy the fiberglass one.. you have to pay to get it painted! so your price goes up on that one too!
