Good for you PVerdieck. Out in 110 degree Mojave desert you need as many vents as you can get.

One reason I am glad my car is not done with the rebuild (too hot)

There's some imitations available for $700 on ebay sometimes and here.

I paid $1150.

Of course you can always by the one they stole from me. I'm sure it's going cheap

There is no finer looking hood. As far as rice....I get 35-45 year old Milf's squakwing at my car as well as the usual <25 set. If that's rice, I'll take it. I got stopped by a yuppie couple outside Saks not too long ago and they waited for me to stop chatting on my cell phone in the parking lot to ask me what that car was after lusting after it for at least 2-3 minutes.

Some people cant get over the Scoot hoods looks. Personally I do not like the center scoop (even if it is functional) but I do like the big vents.

If you are like me then you can consider 2 other hoods which look like the Scoot but dont have the middle scoop. Personally I will be going with the RE AD9 hood in wet CF.

RE Amemiya AD9





Or the INGs
