We have a Toyota club running in Ireland/UK and one of our members is about to start producing a new style fibreglass hood skin for the 6gc.
(Its going to be very similar to the top-secret hood in style) The cost of which will be determined by the amount of interest raised by potential customers. Here is a cut of what he had to say: "I am in talks with a new design company, about making full fiberglass bonnet skins which will have a built in scoop for the 6th Generation Celica.(The scoop design has already been decided) " So just to gather the numbers of people who might be interested, can you post any comments or questions in the Celica forum on our site? The link is here... Toyota-irl.com Hood interest  Thanks again

Well..apparently he is making two types..a full hood replacement and a skin replacement. If you lift up your hood and look under where the lining is...you should be able to see that the actual external sheet matal is removeable..leaving just the cross frame. The replacement skin goes on there as a dircet replacement...so theres no cutting or anything like that needed. But you'd probably be better off just asking the man himself. He's not looking for definite buyers, just a few posts from people stating that they might be interested. He is definiely making them, it's not a case that he is trying to decide whether to make them or not. I'm getting it myself for my own car and he is developing a wide arch kit at the same time to complement the hood. I'm using my own car as a show car for the Toyota-irl.com club so I have ordered it already. But you should just for the sake of it post under the thread and get the list going..its not everyday that a 6gc specific item is being offered up for manufacture.
