this is looking good, there was also a limited run of RE ones, that had 4 scoops. IF you cut out some of the hood below the scoop and use either options, they are quite functional in pulling out hot air.

Do not use if you are still Top mount though.

Quick poll...Most of you are interested in fiberglass so you could paint match? There won't be many interest in carbon fiber?

Just want to get a idea of how much of each i should make.

widebodyseven hasn't logged on here for over a month....doesn't sound it's going to be anytime soon or ever?... this and the S4 sport spoiler replica are the two most difficult things to track down or get replicated...This is getting kind of annoying wish they would make these things happen.

A couple of years ago there was a guy who was offering to produce knock off's like this, just needed an original Amemya reverse vent part to make a mold from. I offered to loan him mine, just asking for one of the knock off's in return. Never went anywhere. Can't loan it now as it's since been painted and mounted.

Too bad these best intentions thing seem to die off all to often.

I'm in for updates as well. Can't really ask for the OEM scoop back now since it's been modded.
