We are still looking for a FEED or equal front lip to do molding from if anyone wants to donate theirs in return for a CF replacement. Email me at admin@fc3s.org if you have one.

I'm interested in a new dash, especially if it doesn't look stock. :/

Universal Dash in Fiberglass

It is designed for full race cars though, not stock ones. It can be used on a street car, but nothing like a stock dash.

Wow I want that one sided double mm pod! But how much are they going for. Hook us up with some pricing and I'll probably buy alsot everything you produce out of this.

I dig it. I was looking for something like that, that could be used with a slightly modified stock gauge cluster. How do you attach it to the chassis?

Dave,

By this do you mean they are making your stock replacement hoods now or they are working on the new "custom" design that you mentioned earlier in this post?

If so, did you decide to go with Amemiya or anything else?

If you were taking votes I'd like to see a Border like hood with a raised center section divided down the middle and then two side vents. They could either be fashioned like the Knight sports hood, or "gills" similar to the RE piece.

Good work.

-Chris

No they are taking over the production of the stock TII hoods. After we pay off that tooling cost, we are going to make a FEW more designs

Nice gauage pod but a but pricey for something to hold gauges.


Maybe if the whole shell qwas removed and you just used a small mounting point you could lower the costs thus making it a bit more reasonable.

The idea of a whole hump being CF is sweet but damn.

Maybe so, but the first 4 pieces that we made have already been sold. I think it is a very fair price for the craftsmanship of the part. Not to mention the time it takes to make them so they come out the way they do.

Have you seen what the JDM makers get for their pods like this in just fiberglass? I think we are quite competative.

Yeah after we pay off the tooling costs for the current hood, we will make another design. Probably a group buy to get the initial purchase of hoods.
