Update

Updated news!

I just spoke with my contact, Jermaine, at StoopidParts, and we will be meeting up in a few weeks to start the prototyping work on this hood.

There will be about three or four stages, and I will keep you updated.

The first stage will include me giving up my poor hood, and handing it over to be bent, spindled, mutilated, and used for the mold. Its all good, though, all in the name of helping my Nissan Bretheren out.

Second Stage will include me going back to Stoopid Parts and having the prototype being put on my car, checking for fittament, fit, finish, and quality. We will be sure to take pics and post 'em here. This will also include testing of things, underhood temp, as well as other things.

Third Stage -- Production hood! We will have the production hood on my car, and will be checking through everything once more, for fit, finish, quality, and other stuff. These guys are very very committed to making quality parts for Nissan/Infiniti vehicles. Once again, pics will follow!

Jermaine asked me to ask you all what you guys would like to see next for the B14 Sentra? Carbon Fiber gauge bezel thingies? If there is solid interest in an item, they'll make it!

You can express your interest here, or drop them a line at [email protected] Trust me, they want to hear from you! :)

Thanks, and I promise to keep you all updated on this as things progress.

Edit: Those of you who are solidly interested, please send me an e-mail to [email protected] with your Real Name, and e-mail address we can reach you at, so we can contact you personally regarding pricing, and shipping, etc. I've already heard from one person, and he knows who he is. :)

Very GOOD work stealth....Nice job putiing this together. I would e-mail you but I dont think Id be ready for this anytime soon but then again U did say it would be sum time so.....List me as INTRESTED than--extremely...

AND i really like how they want to knoe wut else we would be intrested in cuz UKNOW if I get a Hood then I have to coordinate with sum other carbon fiber goodies...

-Gauge Bezel
-Spoiler
-hood scoops
-etc......

I think Im leaning more towards some kind of a hood scoop...rather than a whole hood but IM open to anything right now...

There is another thread with a guy named Sentra_Industies trying to do the same thing. But he is not successful.

I'm aware of that. :) Thanks for the heads up. The fellas at StoopidParts are no dummies. :D (pun intended). They know their stuff, and if the demand is high enough, and we have a good set of first buyers, they're willing to look into getting us hooked up with some sweet cosmetic things, and maybe down the road some suspension, but right now, they're working on more "show" mods than "go" mods.

Sitting in my car today, I was thinking (yes...contrary to popular belief I was thinking), that it would be kind of cool, to match the CF Bezels, they could also maybe create CF pieces for the black trim around the HVAC controls, and Stereo...you guys know what I'm talkin 'bout, right? :D As well as a piece for those of us blessed (I'm being sarcastic here) with the Automatic transmissions...ya know à la Nis-Knacks with their Wood Trim Pieces. :) What you all think?

I look at that every day and love the fact that there are only 2 other B14's with it and think, DAMN I AM GOOD!!!!! :D



How about C/F Door trim, rear deck, rear interior panel, Window pillar, Shift boot and Ebrake boot? LOL

Seriously Sam, If the hoods come out in February that would be so cool. I am saving money right now so I could have it by February but i have so many bills. Damn Smog check and registration. Damn Car payments. Damn everything. One question though,

Is there something we are going to get to cover the vent incase of heavy rain or snow. I know it doesnt snow around here except in the mountains but rain is what worries me.
