^Exactly. That's uber $$$$ for an overlay.

 

huh,,, so Leg finally created thier own hood instead of repping the RE hood, though I must say it looks like they used the RE hood as a starting point,,,

 

Where would rain water go with that hood? Does it have channels all the way to the rear?

 

If they have any at all, it might be an add-on typical with aftermarket vented hoods,,,

 

 

LOL NICE GIRL LOL... i was scrolling and was like NICE catch can thingy.. ? and then i scrollled more down and all of a sudden a SMILE came to my face

 

that is a cute outfit.

 

 

 

I highly doubt that it's an overlay, otherwise I'm sure you'd see more of them on cars. I believe you need to cut the actual aluminum portion of the roof off, to be able to install the CF roof. I don't think many people want to go that extreme, by starting to chop apart your RX-8 to replace it with CF roof look. I highly doubt you'd save barelly any weight as it is on the replacing the roofs.

 

Here is another picture of the LEG-Motorsports hood..

 

Japanparts confirmed it is an overlay.

 

On the hood? Or the roof?

 

The roof.

 

Here is the thread I started on it Feb 2009.

You drill out spot welds, remove front and rear glass and off it comes like a tuna can.

 

If you do that though, don't you need to get a brand new roof because your old one won't be shaped the same way again? I've looked into this because I'm aiming to swap out my sunroof for a non sunroof model, but I can't swap with people it seems as I was warned it will ruin the roof.

 

Back in the day, I had a civic with a sunroof and I just had it removed and piece of metal welded into the hole where it was. When it was all done and painted you couldn't even tell the car had a sunroof.

 

I like my sun roof. I have it open every chance i can. That is when its not raining.

 

what stuttgart said. the easiest way to get rid of a sunroof is buy a non sunroof headliner and just weld in a new piece of metal.

 

 

What FI kit is this?

 

blitz

 

yup Blitz SuperCharger, good for about + 60-65rwhps...

 

thanks
