I honestly can't believe the backlash this has been receiving. I have no concerns about this and it's obviously in good hands so I'll patiently wait until something happens. I can't believe the majority of people in here that seem to be so hard up for a vented hood actually need it for its function and actually require one as if they're doing auto events so in that case go buy one of the many on the market already. There's even a separate threads for them!

No matter if you track your z or drive it on the high way, the engines run hot as hell. I can do a couple pulls and the damn thing is already peaking 220 which isn't a comfortable temp for me even if it doesn't harm the engine. If the prototype is done whats the hold up on the pics? I just wanna see the design so I can decided if they're for me or not..

I appreciate your comment and I believe the take away is that there is a lot of desire for a product that has been missed for our cars. I really did not anticipate the overwhelming response positive or negative. I think a good looking functional vent fills the void for many people regardless of our individual taste. My biggest disappointment is how some choose to express themselves and their dissatisfaction. I get that this has taken longer than many of us thought but I have know idea what it take to build a product like this. If it is so simple why aren't there vents galore for us to choose from? It really is a shame when forum members try to do something positive and there have to be haters that have no interest in the effort want to tear it down just for chit and giggles. I'm not talking about the family fun of poking fun at one another. It keeps things lite, fun and entertaining.

I am glad that people are fired up for this product and I hope it is a grand slam! Thanks for your patience!!!
