Hoodies update
aight .....forum member in lousiana bought our prototype hood...finally after a week of boxing it up the shipping company ended up reboxing it and shipping was only 160 compared to 247 from fedex...without the discount......but just a word of advice...have them box it if ur going freight ....cuz ull end up spending the same money reboxing it again anyhow......the we left some xtra on the deges so he could trim to fit his car but its a one off that way and we decided not to try to reinvent the wheel anymore and just make a stock underside out of fiberglass that way u dont have to worry about fitment issue with the rubber stops.......we are making two more this week for stock7 and another for BLUETII as well as working on the body kit molds......so all as well just kind of an update and hopefull John will have his hood painted soon before this thread dies......just letting you know we are stil doing it and im getting bored on the furom without something to read...loool.....peace...Derek
here it is 2 months later and on my car
it is primer gray and not completed fitted yet.
my bumper must be bolted on completely to take out the gap
and rubber stoppers under hood adjusted for height
the hood is great:
this is the first hood produced by-----
DLTREEZAN
Any n/a car needs this hood due to the amount of hot air
that is pushes out of the engine bay.
I am currently working on a fan shroud that will work
better than the stock one with this hood. It will require the use
of an 14" e-fan instead of stock one once built I will post pics
of it as well.
