i have a 1 of 1 carbon fiber hood.... check it out
no he cant turn it around, the "bolt pattern" and the dimentions are off. but he can buy another scoop for it that ius a reverse scoop. think of it as interchangable rather then reversable. (i am his best friend, this is how i know)

I don't care if they sponser you..... really..... as it sits, that hood is a mongoloid ricers wet dream
tell them to make it with the center vent as PART OF THE HOOD, ..........not bolted on like some cheap cowl induction aftermarket POS you'd see pop riveted (steel, so they rust, of course) over a hole cut with a Black and Decker jig saw in the hood of an '85 6 cylinder camaro with a primer paint job up on blocks in the tornado magnet.. i mean trailer park, on the south side of hicksville USA........ and I'll buy one...

all in all, most of the rx community seemed to really like the hood..... i love mine, now that i finally got it adjusted right (been lazy) ......
ive relayed that the hood was a hit, but most people are not fond of the rivets, and to maybe offer a hood w/ out rivets in it..... we'll see what happns........ baby steps!!
