fc3s.org makes a really nice hood from what I hear, but its still stock design, so no creative energy to burn making a copy of stock for me, so no boat floatin
Well, I just ordered a fiberglass hood from Dltreezan. I sent a downpayment and such. Im sure Ill love it. When I get it (2 weeks or so), ill post pictures so you all can see what his last masterpiece was....
Wow. The pic above makes me like that one more than the previous version(seeen in the back ground)
I like the side vents. I'm doing that to my **** NA steel hood since I already have to hack a hold for th IC.

prolly wouldnt be too bad, maybe 550 or so, dependng on how expensive the CF is. i wanna get myself set with this and a set mold and design, then i'll sart playing with CF when i have the money to spare
so you think you're venting heat by propping the hood up, whenm really you just drive around with everyone laughing at you - i'd take a dinged and faded hood over a perfectly propped one any day hehe

sure isnt my taste, but the doriftos in japan seem to think it works but thats a whole new argument, i just saw a few today in a vid i watched, i think with the negative air pressure by the windsheild u would actually be ambient right by that area, but everyone has there own opinion but look at the flow chart and you will see what I mean.
