your missing my point....the hood does look sweet and i HOPE it helps. but with no real testing or anything all you have is holes in the hood.


too bad you cant get ahold of a VARIS hood to .......copy.........

I know the test your talking about the one with strings and tape. the only problem with that kind of testing is it is inconclusive most of the time... Dai hit it on the head with the theory behind venting the hood.

Maybe a variation of this hood? It looks the best imo.

That looks really good Mike...

SPOHN 08-31-2011 03:46 PM

I like that the best. I would be very interested in that but would rather get the other thing squared away with you guys first. That is a must for myself! Just wanting to throw added pressure at yea. Hehe.

Edit: I've looked at this hood a dozen times today. It's pretty damn sharp.

Isamu 09-06-2011 11:46 AM

hood looks really familiar... wierd

i would prefer it like ont he blue car just so it would follow that slight edge in the hood, which would allow someone to do a better paint scheme.

Jamaica 09-06-2011 12:10 PM

I think the blue car has to much going on. I like it somewhat simple when it comes to the hood. Who knows the hood might be one off.

i agree slightly. i'd take the hood with just the center front vents. not the side.

I want a clear hood. Old school baby.

daisuke149 09-06-2011 02:21 PM

but Andrew i would still prefer they be a bit wider to align up with the cut/line thats already in the hood! would give someone like me a good line to go all black paint on.

That's how I designed the hood originally. the "vents" on the sides were agreed to be removed by the prems in a thread where I had posted this design months back.

but its sort of what thier "version2" looks like

ya i get what your saying. It needs to extend to the lines of the car on the hood. I might just do that with the hood i have now. Also made a hood with two vents on the outer sides. Larger and functional.

The exiting hood with the GTR scoops has to much going on. I can make it.

depends on how its actually made.. if it's just CF overlay then no, it most likely will be heavier..
