Question Which Hood?

Hey, I am in need of a new hood for my FD and I cannot decide which one to get. I love the scoot hoods but the price is not exactly in the range I want to look in.
What hoods so you suggest

Mazdaspeed replica

Check in the group buy forum for more info...
The mazdaspeed hood best fits the curves of the FD IMO.

Yep we only sell the original, authentic parts. Too many knockoffs out there don't have the same quality or fitment.

There are a couple of Stout hoods coming in on our next container, should arrive in the next two weeks some time.



They are $795, after freight $925, just a little cheaper than the Border Hood I have on special..

The freight is the killer on the hood deals

good quality?

Can you take some good quality photos to show us how good of quality the Border hood is? The MR2 one my friend got a while ago looks like ****, especially the under side of it. I wonder if they have improved the quality or not. Fit it on a 3rd gen to show fitment as well if you have time.

border pics

Sure thing. I have been avoiding it cause I may not want to give it up once its installed!

It will have to wait til this weekend so I can have someone come over and help me support it. My camera doesn't have any higher resolution settings, but I'll zoom onto the corners and seams and such.

I don't think I will install the fenders, the temptation will be too great to keep them. They look fantastic though. Ill get some pics of the backs and corners/edges of them as well.
