Pics of Shine hood in action!!!

As for the durability of the zipties: i didn't wreck or anything, but look how low my car is and not once during the day did my aero come off. Even a couple of times backing it into the dirt pretty fast off course.

Underhood temps with V-mount and Shine hood were pegged right at -30*C. If you got too close, instant frostbite.

Maybe we can start a second GB, since I will be in the market for a hood too!

Shine, would that be possible, if so how many people do we need to make it happen?

I'm far too broke for any kind of group buy.

I just meant to say that it's nice, and I'd love to have it.

Shipping for the hood is $125.

No group buys at the moment. Our production team is very busy at the moment. A group buy will be too overwhelming. We have no hoods in stock. These are all made to order at this point. $475 for FRP.

Let me know if you guys have any further questions.

We've made them in CF before. I believe we can do a CF version for $750.

Also, this will work with your top mount.

More use... more hood:

Also, my hood flipped up and smashed my winshield late in the day (friend forgot my hood pins). So uh... now I need to do a little bit of repair. But considering the damage to the glass, the FRP is REALLY strong. And flexible too. It's still together, minus some minor chips and cracks.
