Hey i was just browsing on cardomain.com and came across this red rx-8 with a sweet vented hood, anyone seen this??? what do you think? i like it has a nice clean look yet not over doing it, IMO.
|
as said on the hood.. its made by seibon :)
|
never asked does any one know who its by but thanks for the heads up...
|
LOL
wonder how much it is ? |
...
Do a search for SEIBON hoods... One of the vendors on this forum sells it :rolleyes: |
heh. Maybe it's just me, but there is nothing clean about a mismatched hood.
|
I was just trying to give my 2 cents on what i know of the hood.... if you want to come off like an ass then please do so :)
|
just so you know www.rx8garage.net sells them thew the owner is a vendor here and he has some other CF hoods
|
It looks like a Knight Sports hood for the RX-7. Liked it on the 7, not so much on the 8....in general I don't think it works well to take a design for one car and then transfer it to the next...if you don't design it for the 8, good luck getting it to look clean. Just my opinion, as always....

i prefer a stock looking CF hood

Your original post said "What do you think." Now people tell you and that's "coming off like an ass?"

to me the grill on the vents make it look cheap..
|
I agree maybe if it was a dark mesh

I have only seen rx8garage.com the mesh may make it look cheap but with no mesh it looks funny |
I like it, but not the white vents...should keep it a uniform color

ewww white vents. i perfer the r-magic vented hood...but damn it's hella exspesive:(

I don't think they're white...I think they're just unpainted metallic mesh. Personally, on the FD (and I was right it appears...calling it "KS-style" implies they've copied the Knight Sports hood, although I don't know if Knight Sports actually makes a hood like that for the 8) I thought the metallic mesh looked fine, as long as the hood was painted body color (of course its a pretty easy thing to simply paint the mesh if you don't like the silver look). I like carbon fiber in its place, but body panels...including hoods....is not one of those places. Again, just my $0.02.
