Stand back and self reflect.

Did you know all about it when you first started? Everyone is "noob" one time or another in something when they are just learning on it, including yourself and me. It's hypocritical to respond like that when they're just sincerely asking trying to learn. We're forever students in this life always learning.

Man's biggest problem is pride, we're all guilty of it one time or another,

Nice contribution, *******.

I know the difference between stock and CF. Just not dry vs wet CF.

I needed the vents too...the hood is a bit heavier...but the airflow is much better

Going to have to make a cover for it though to keep out the lovely Vancouver weather

The weight difference isn't enough to make you want to put your battery in the trunk is it?
I've been looking at the TS hood for quite some time, just waiting to get to that part on my modification list.

Airflow meaning? Explain... Only benefits I've read to the hood is better cooling when you take off the panels underneath that channel water so it doesn't soak your engine bay.

Airflow....vented hood....must have missed something obvious

The hood will allow more airflow than the stock hood ( basically zero)....
