sweet!

hell yeah!

anyone getting one of these hoods wanna sell a TII hood? PM me plz
Hoods are f'in sweet ken, just dont have the money right now

I have a TII hood. It's silver and in perfect shape....


But i'm in Cali, not NC.

start saving up boys.........the hood looks good. Just need to test fit to make sure.

Now? who wants the original sexy style one? Its intact.

How is it still intact?

I'd be down for the original, I don't think any hood will really fit too well on my jam. I paid my $200 deposit, how much more for the original?

i'll sell you the original for $200 + tax if you want.

Killer. I'm local too, so I can come pick up. What's needed to make it useable? Needs to be refinished at all?


well its almost the same as the picture that was posted. Its in gray primer form.

Ken

Hey ken, just pm when I can pick up the hood.
Thanks Robert

DC, you have a PM.

Reese

Sweet! That's the piece pulled from the mold? Looks VERY nice.



Shine, you wanna PM me some pics (or post) of the original? I can pick up this weekend (Sunday).

Thanks.

sunday is a no no :) Saturday is best.

I meant current pics, since those were before the mold was made and everything. And that whole business about cutting out the vent.... dunno what ended up happening, as we all thought it would have been destroyed to graft the vent onto the OEM NA hood.


So yah, current pics of the original hood is what i meant, sorry for the confusion. :)

*lotion*

are they all going to come in black like that? and when will they all be completed? (i dont want to get mine until the people before me have theres, since i got in kinda late)

Argh, Saturday I am jamming to get a friend's 180 back together (built motor and re installing, piping, etc). I'll tolk to him, maybe we can fly by Saturday morning before working on his rig.

so they are ready?

groovy.... ill wait for the people that need them to get theirs first... then ill come get mine...

aka, you don't have money right now either? haha, btw i saw your car last night viper looks sweet

I hate to be a naysayer, but it looks somewhat blocky. Smooth and sleek is kindof supposed to be the look of our cars, isn't it? The original turbo hood scoop looks much sexier and has pretty much the same functionality.
...Just my opinion, of course.;)

First, Smooth and sleek is how I would describe an FD. Blocky and 80s is how I'd describe an FC (unless extensive work is done to alter this, like RE 2000 front bumper etc).

And Second, it has the OPPOSITE effect of the stock TII hood scoop. When you have a V Mount or FMIC, you need air to be EXTRACTED from the engine bay, not SCOOPED in. Also, hot air extraction aids in cooling efficiency (radiator).


MUCH better function than the stock TII heat-soaking top mount IC...

ding ding ding... couldnt have said it better myself:)

kingsfan... yeah, you read in between the lines:)

Whoever is ready can send in the rest of the payment if they can. That way we can get these bad boys out.

Shipping is $135. The hood is $425.

when can i pick mine up ? and can i just pay the other $225 up front cash?

+1
i can either come down with cash or paypal you the remaining $225.
also, i dont have a truck available. is there anyway you or someone there can help me with putting it on my car? maybe even help me put in the pins? :D

hey fris, pick up mine too! and pay for it...

Hey Ken, How are we doing on the hoods? Update please.
Thanks Robert

Hey guys... Snapped some pics of the hood (see attachments). Looks kinda odd since my car is white, but I'm getting it painted soon.

Sorry about the blurry engine shot. Its for the underside view too (which has some FG powder left on it because I had to shave it a little to clear my strut bar). Just showing you all why I got the hood in the first place...

Oh yeah, so far its turning out to work awesome!

[edit]Sorry the pics are so dark... I'll try to get some better ones once I get the whole thing painted.

Oh yeah... That thing is definatly noticeably lighter than my aluminum hood!

I'd like to pick on up but whats it made out of and whats the weight?

looks great. so you dont need hood pins?

fiberglass and not a lot

No sir. Has a stock latch. It doesent latch very well though.. I have to slam it to get it engaged--but thats a lot better than having pins IMO.

yeah. sweet. fitment looks perfect! i cant wait

thats typical.... if you put a aluminum hood on a fc that has a steel hood latch, youll have to slam it also... its the weight of the hood that makes you not have to slam it.... theres nothing you can really do about it

i don't mind having pins, i already ordered a set, does anybody else's stock hood pop open while driving? i know fris's does, so i'm not taking chances...anyways looks hot! i got next dibs [shoulda had first...but no money at the time], mine's gonna look the same, black on white, haha

slack ass

dood dont trust the stock hood latch, ive had first hand experience with the stock hood popping up on me. i took the stock latch out and put in some pins :) no more worries

btw, the hood looks awesome cant wait to get mine!

kingsfan and FC3S nataku are next.

The hood comes with a stock latch but we always advise to get hood pins for saftey/liability purposes. Also.....the hood is lighter so it will not engage as easily as your stock hood.

i sent in the last of my money on sat. now i just wait for it to come :)

Hey Ken, anyword on if I get mine before Sevenstock???
