Default Re: Vented Carbon Fiber Hood Design Status

not bad at all ... I definitely prefer it over stock, although I'd like something without the lines down the hood

I wouldn't know how to go about getting that done with a stock hood though. You said it is "easy to copy" ... does that mean if someone went down to a local body shop and showed them the picture of yours, the body shop should have no problem duplicating it?

It will be iteresting to see what a carbon hood wanna be will cost you when installed on the car. Mine is easy to copy and is not difficult to replicate. Yes Ill do a thermal eval to show the heat rejection benefits, as I was the first to get into cooling seriously. Supercooler, 180 stat, hood, under hood liner delete and under motor baffel delete, exhaust shielding, and eventually fan controller that I can release to the public forum.

WOODY

AAAAH GUYS I CANT EVEN COPY PREVIOUSLY TAKEN AND STORED PHOTOS. THIS IS NEW AND FURTHER DEGREDATION OF THE SITE............
