Is that actually fabricated or photoshop of what it could look like?

Ya, I went to Hotrodz house and fabricated them while he was at work. It was a bit of a drive.

Dying to see the parts installed. I didn't find any pics on the company's intagram for the Z.

What DarkJak said and yes the hood vent leading edge should be just about 13" to 15" from the front the hood which would place it just beyond the radiator. That is if you trust my measurements. I actually took measurements from Fugi hood vents and the placement of the radiator from the front of the hood.

Think the small vents need to be swapped side the side. The left on the right and right on the left. See how that looks. From looking at the new pictures. You have them up side down and asss backwards.

WhoZZ doZZ youZZ meanZZ exactlyZZ

I mean we have the vents now, and they are three separate pieces so if you don't like the placement of them where Eagle ends up installing them and you think you know a better place that would keep the heat out. Then you can always place them wherever you want they are vents after all and your hood isn't cut out in any exact spots for them yet so I especially like the creativity aspect of this project. I expect to see these vents in various spots some for looks and others for function but at the end of the day its what makes you happy

Oh **** I missed a lot

Chuck33079 · 11-07-2017, 08:03 AM

I've got my credit card in hand waiting on the installed pics. This looks great so far.

And to the (possibly mentally deficient) gentleman who suggested that this was vaporware and no one would ever see these things, how do you like them apples?
