What hood is this (FD3S)?
 
I saved the picture off here but i can't for the life of me find it now because it was a few years ago. I can't remember if it was an after market hood or just a universal vent moulded into the stock hood.

Can anyone help or point me to the thread where it is please?

Probably custom.

Don't know what it is but it is aggressive as hell.

Found another picture from my collection, this time of a car from the uk. To me, this means that this is a complete after market hood for the fd, and not some custom vent moulded into stock hood.

Funkspectrum 05-14-12 02:09 PM

Maybe one of the uber-JDM boys will chime in...

Close but no cigar. Vitafist is from greece and has a sunroof on his fd. This car has no sunroof and the owner is norweigan (judging by his youtube account) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQATeLt-0z0

I've sent him a message, but had no reply after 4 months.

Did he change his car around? If he did I'm really digging his new look.

Edit- I will agree that is a really nice hood

not sure if this is another vendor:

The candy apple red car you posted I believe does/did belong to a Norwegian forum member: joastarlet.

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ight=Norwegian

His pictures have been deleted but I did sorta remember that thread and someone made a reference to an elise. So Im pretty sure that is the car.

Edit- Yes it is him. That watermark on the pictures that you posted: joastarlet has a turbo-kid.com link on his sig.

Man, seriously impressive searching skills there buddy. You're awesome. Thanks

Airwolf RX7 05-15-12 07:16 PM

Montego, mad props on finding it... Good detective skills indeed. :)

Airwolf RX7 05-15-12 07:16 PM

now the question, how much would it cost to get it over here (fees and everything)

caredden 05-15-12 09:20 PM

Same discussion six months ago...
