GT4 SS Hood for GS430
Does anyone know where I can find a GT4 SS Hood such as the one found on Dee's car on the site Lexus Gone Wild? I would appreciate any help someone can give me. Thanks!

It is custom. Dee might be willing to sell it if you PM him. He was selling his other Nomura hood a while back. The one you are refering to is the GS hood with the 96-98 Cobra hood molded to it.

Welcome to CL 
The hood you are inquiring about is indeed a custom job utilizing the fiberglass skin of a 96-98 Mustang Cobra hood and a lexus oem hood. I recently had the same hood made for my GS and can tell you that it took a little over 16 hours of work (including paint time) to make the hood. I can't speak on behalf of Dee on how he accomplished the look but I can tell you mine took a lot of cutting, riveting, gluing, sanding, carbon fiber, and more sanding to pull it off! It was pricey, but definitely a head turning mod that gets a lot of attention and appraisal 
If you're wanting more info, PM me.
