[NeverSober]

the gemini reverse cowl does a great job of getting rid of heat.

Where did you order your reverse cowl from? Good to see you dont have to use hood pins on it like most other carbon fiber hoods...

Reverse.... EVO hoods are for EVO's.

Wow, I like that hood.

Functional and not going crazy on the 'bling factor'.... good.

I designed that hood.

However, when I did a GB for them there didn't seem to be much interest from this forum. I am still offering them though.

I like 'em all, just not the prices of any - I know, you get what you pay for, they look killer AND are functional - just gotta figure out when I can do it - damn priorities!

Thanks, but I recently bought a Fiber Images though. :-/

Reverse.... EVO hoods are for EVO's.

thats why i bought the dual vent hood. i hate seeing msp's with evo hoods. its like a little kid trying to act like hes 21 or something.

Where can I find the OEM style carbon fiber hood?

 

[MP3Architect]

a lot of people make that one. fiber images makes one, gemini makes one, and others. goto **********.com or protegegarage.com

 

[nikkifresh03]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

BTW what is the differece between regular and Hood "V"?

the weave of the carbon fiber

 

[MyOrangeToy]

so hood V is better?

 

[MP3Architect]

just a personal preference. whichever you like

 

[oldzoomer]

the V messes with your eyes. I like it.
I paid $930 CAD for mine during the group buy.
It really helps keep the engine and intercooler a lot cooler than the stock hood. It was 83 to 89 degrees for my trip through the hill country today and I was getting great boost/blow-off during the 90 mile trip. The stock hood killed boost at anything over 80 degrees.
