Howdy all!(thats Texan)hehehe I am originally from Illinois.

I have another hood ready...stock, fiberglass $225 plus shipping, I will crate it at no extra cost. If you are going to 7stock I might be able to toss it into RX7.coms truck and get free shipping!! I am working on a stock carbon hood for 7stock....anyone interested....free shipping to 7stock and cost of hood $275!!! I will have to let you know for sure if I get the cf hood done in time.

here is a pic. of the fiber glass hoods(old thread)https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=107925

Oh yah, I have a hood I am working on putting a(sorry Manntis on wording) "vent" in. Looks like this is what people want. This is not the turbo2 look, this is the backwards vent style. I am also working on the valance with the 4 ducts in it.

 

That's what I wanted to hear!!

 

Cool, I'm sure you'll sell more vented ones than non. Good to see that it weighs a lot less than the stock 32 lbs.

 

cool man

 

Sweet, keep up the good work .

I will want that vented hood. That is the ****!

 

I would love the vented on!! have been looking for some extra cooling. just let us know when its done... $275 for a CF hood??? Thats Damn Cheep!!

 

Not to be a critic or anything, but how rigid is that hood, looks pretty thin. And if you could get one that used the stock latch Id be really happy.

 

That's what's slowing down my CF vented hood development - trying to anchor the hood latch in a reliable, safe, and lightweight manner. Right now we're using the hood loop attached to a piece of broad, flat aluminum that then gets sandwiched between the CF skin and Fibreglass underlay. (5 layers of CF would make the hood rediculously expensive, less than 5 layers wobbles @ higher speeds, so 'glass is used to provide rigidity

 

Do you have some pics of the carbon fiber version? Have you completed a carbon versino yet? Just asking...

 

Could you check yo' old thread? since i asked for a carbon fiber hood from ya, i was wonderin' if you can put louvers like in the pic on the ol' thread and how much it would cost! thanks man.

 

I am posting a new thread on the vented hood.

The $275 is a one time price if someone would commit to buying one at 7stock......I may consider a group purchase on any of the hoods available though..........

 

I wish i wasn't a broke college student.... a new hood is somewhere down my line on the long to do list.
