Nothing against you at all. You are a great customer. Having products made in China is a trend to reduce production cost and there is nothing wrong with it. It's just part of business. I would do it too if I can trust the quality of the parts. Some of the made in China bodykits have decent quality but some of those are really bad. I rather have the production taken place in the US so I can closely monitor it but that's just me.

Does anybody have any information (particularly regarding fitment) with the hoods from www.atihun.com ? Again looks similar to the Mazdaspeed hood. I wonder if they are superior to the Mazdaspeed replicas that RX-7 Store sells.
Oh and my vote goes to Mazdaspeed.

Almost unnoticable from the front.

Thanks, just looked at those myself! I think I found my vented hood for the future.
EDIT: Damian, I think the Scoot hood's a better choice for the track car. For your street FD....no.

I went with the scoot hood and I can literally see the heat exiting out throw the vents when sitting at a light. I personally would not go with the scoot hood on a stock body style because I think it is too dramatic without adding something to the rest of the car, like a body kit of some sort.
