That was a super ignorant statement.
There were 2 of the hoods. One was on my car and the other on his showcar.
Quoted from an email Dave Green, the owner of DGM sent me:
"I have to take my car on the freeway next week and now I am a little nervous"
"The change I made was just the angle of the inlet and size for the final hood."
They didnt change the resin used on the redesign.. which was the flaw in mine.. So the ones they will be selling are the same thing with just a different angle and slightly larger inlet.
So what you gathered was completely wrong and that was a extremely ignorant statement on your part. THAT is why this forum is ******* gay and the other is expodentially better, you all think you know everything about everything..
MANY MANY MANY people told me to not buy the hood because DG SUCKS BALLS but I did it anyways to see if maybe their mazdaspeed stuff would be any different... nope, completely incorrect. They did appologize and refunded me ASAP, but this could have turned out VERY VERY bad.
