I was watching a Jap mpeg (downloaded from vosko's site-I think? ) about rx7s and it showed several jacked up models racing around a track. One of them had an aftermarket hood on it which looked like a smaller version of the ferrari 550 maranello hood. Anyone know if this is something I can buy? Or do I need to get out my english wheel, tig, and spackel knives? It was the best looking hood I've ever seen on a 7-factory look since it complimented the lines of the car. Let me guess only avail in JP at some crazy price right?

SCOOT hood

 

SCOOT hood a.k.a Porsche GT1 Hood knock off

 

That porsche GT1 looks awesome.

 

I had no idea it was a knockoff of the Porsche Gt1

 

so thats why even the "original" Scoot hood supposedly does not fit well.

 

Hey man, did you know you are a cheap knock off product of your parents? Go hate yourself

 

beautiful hood!

 

Where can I get one of those beautiful hoods?

be ready to fork over some serious cash

 

That particular one is a replica which is suppose to fit better than the original at 1/2 the cost.

I've seen the scoot hood (I think its too gaudy)
Close, but the hood I'm talking about doesn't have those gills in it. It just has the center intake. Plus a little more aggressive lines to it.

Is this what your talking about?? Because if it is i refer to this as the Viper hood rather than the maranello because Vipers got this lil slit....and Fds can be commoly referred to as the Viper Jr.

 

this is a really bad pic but i think if you look closely the owner did a custom intake job on the veilside kit

 

http://www.RX7store.net and http://www.rotaryextreme.com both have that.

 

they have what.the scoot hood or the "viper" hood..cuz i couldnt find it

 

Damn sweet.....Subtle by Design.....Love this hood....anyone knows where to get it?

 

 

7th Heaven, I have seen that owner's website and it looks like a custom job in which he or his body shop guy integrated a viper hood scoop into his stock hood. I know www.stingerfiberglass.com sells a hood like that for the dodge avenger and it looks hot. Maybe they would know where to find a scoop like that for your hood. Check it out.

 

BUWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

 

Guys, that's real Dodge Viper hood. The car owner's handle in the forum is Cypher. Do a search in the 3rd Gen forum for his name and you'll see his thread when he bought the car.

 

Flybye that was some funny ****.. lol

 

TpCpLaYa and 7th heaven,
That's very close to what I've been looking for. I'll buy the scoop and morph it in if I have too. But can we buy this hood?

The one on Cypher's car was purchased from a Dodge dealer.

 

that i believe would be the best way to go. gitting the scoot hood and molding the slit would be WAYY to much hassle...trust me. peopl have a damn hard time just with the scoot hood alone
