Just want to know the quality and fit of this hood.... Any info would be great

 

I know its a new and popular company over in Japan, but other then that, I would say e-mail Jason at www.jt-imports.com

 

why does it have four hood pins? If it were for racing, maybe it'd have one in each corner... I worry that it's got the extras to hold down the CF so it doesn't show how warped the ends are...

 

if they are warped, just do what they did and add 4 pins.

I wouldn't put warped pieces on my car... Just me, tho

 

DAMN! Try looking at half of the race cars in Japan a lot of them have 4 hood pins.. It has nothing to do with being warped, its for racing purposes. Check for more pics around, and Im sure you will see that car at the track, MORE then yours...

i agree with dingleberry. they just add the four pins to help hold the hood down. sometime it flexes alot from the wind.

 

Hey RedTT, did you get my PM back to yah ?!? If you still want the Replica CF Mazdaspeed hood let me know bro, I'll be back home from school in mid-late Dec for christmas.

 

Does anyone have anymore pics of the blackFD in the middle?

that hood resembles the knightsports hood. Except the 2 main vents in the middle have been sorta inverted and face a different way. Odula also makes sideskirts that look the same as the C-West ones but they dont have the "gills", just a flat piece. Honestly, i think Odula rips most of their ideas...

 

C-west is the most drawn out company of ALL TIME.

Everything cool look like some other company. What you FAIL to realize is there are a ton more companies in Japan that make stuff IE body kits for the FD then there are here in the states... COME ON NOW>.. ever been to Japan? Take a trip then....

god damn i love to odula front end..

 

hey dingle those black FD pics arent the same car. the one in the big pic has the Odula front and the ones u posted have the CWest as well as other obvious differences. ill check right quick to see if i got any but i dont think i do

 

heh well that was quick (thanks to my EASY referencing ), i do have ONE pic of it:

 

****, sorry i keep lieing to you guys....heres a frontal Group shot!

 

 

Yes I realize that there are a lot of manufactures in Japan that are not in the States due to supply/demand. I doubt Panspeed would send a rep over to the states to start a chain when they would be targetting an audience that is declining. I KNOW this. What I also know is that C-West is the original maker of those sides and Odula is NOT. The odula sides are identical but they just didnt add the air vents. CMON! Cant YOU see that...

BTW: What do u mean C-West is the most drawn out company of all time? Can you please clarify this?

 

C-west is drawn out.... HUMMMM too many people have it, and some people only know about it, so in some ways a lot people say oh that looks like C-west, that spoiler looks like C-west, its not you man. I think I had some residual P-OFF NESS from another thread...

TpCpLaYa--- DAMN MAN!! I never even really looked. I just went to their web page, so I just posted the link of their only FD. Maybe its not the AUTOSELECT DEMO car, maybe its just a seperate owner...

No problem at all. I just know for a fact that odula ripped their sideskirts from C-West. A lot of other companies do this aswell, Odula is not the only one. Dosn't matter to me, im happy with my C-West and i think Odula pieces look good aswell. Hope this clears things up?

Or maybe C-West ripped off Odula? hehe jk I'm just being an ***.


Thanks for the pics. I hate to admit it, but I like the graphics on that car. It gives it an added touch of aggressiveness (if that is a word) IMO

 

Nope, Odula ripped C-West. Trust me on this one, lol

 

i think its fine if they ripped it off. maybe some ppl dont like the vent thingies and odual is a good alternative. To me MORE variety is BETTER

 

ya they look exactly like the cwest ones except for that theyre completely different at the front of the side skirt and the rear too..

hmmm....
