Re: Vented Carbon Fiber Hood Design Status
My problem will be in deciding whether to paint it white to match my roadster or paint it blue to match the SRT that I will get at the CAA

Re: Vented Carbon Fiber Hood Design Status
Doc, you dont have to worry about it... you'll likely have 3 by then and that is the limit...... and I have room to park another Aero at my house.....
I really love this hood.... (especially since I havent figured out how to steal Mopar's)...... can't wait to see it on a car for real and painted to match.....

As for emblems, I would contact H82BL8 (Bill) he is a good guy and has a black and stainless emblem that I have on the front of my car that would look awesome on these. I know he recently stopped selling them because his forum sponsorship ended, but last I checked he still has some around, worth a PM to find out.
My last question, when will we see this on an XF for the 'whole picture' look. Or maybe someone could photoshop this last pic onto someone's nice ride, I would certainly volunteer some pics of mine if need be
THANK YOU MADMED, you are the man.

I'm working with them on the different types of mesh they will provide with each kit! (Open Mesh / Closed Mesh) I should have more info soon!!!
Beside the vents, I think the carbon front emblem looks nice! At least we can paint them if we want! Thanks for the idea BoilerUpXFire
Next question......... I need a really nice set of revised XF Emblems!!!!!

While the hood is BEYOND gorgeous, I simply couldn't have such a high percentage of the car's total exterior not matching the rest...
Especially since the remainder of the car would be in factory trim. Perhaps if it was a dedicated weekend racer...
