only one off the top of my head to keep with the quality of parts you have would be a top secret.

I think the "curved" vents on the TS is ugly......and fitment is hit and miss with Top Secret.

I bought the 350z genuine Top Secret cf hood before, as my 3rd or 4th cf hood on the 350z. The fitment was horrendous. Contacted them but due to the overseas and customer service issues, I decided to just buy something else instead.

Had to learn the hard way - Just because it's JDM and expensive ($2k), doesn't mean it'll fit. lol...

I went through 3 Seibon hoods and a Veilside hood as well, but still hit and miss with fitment...with Veilside, it's always "miss" though. lol...

I'll just wait for something more aggressive. I like the Amuse vented hood on the 350z's...and the only thing close to that is Carbon Creations. But heard many horror stories on them...

Guess I'll just have to wait until Summer to see what all the manufacturers have been cooking up this winter.

I like the TS, but still too subtle...I need about 26+ vents.

yeah but I guess it has its perks to be able to smoke pretty much anything on the street... My gf was driving her Z3 home one night, and there was a Gallardo showing off and cutting her and a bunch of people off. She came home upset that she wasn't in the GTR lol...
