Cool

Thank you for being patient. We finally got the hood scoop produced. Here is some images of the FINAL FINISH product everyone is waiting to see.










We are ready to take order. I have two in stock ready to send out on Monday for whoever place their order with us on Monday morning. All other order will take about a week to produce. I appologize for my slow manufacturing guys. They are so busy.

Great News! We can also make these hood scoop in REAL Carbon Fiber material for whoever wants one. Price for CF hood scoop is $350 due to material cost.

Price for Fiberglass hood scoop is $230 plus shipping. Shipping is about $20 anywhere in 48 States. We also ship worldwide via US Postal or FedEx

Please call 1-800-278-3736 to place your order or email us at the address: thebomb_rx7@hotmail.com

You would need heavy duty (industrial strength) 3M double sided tape or used "opoxy" from Home Depo for mounting the hood scoop.

The black hood scoop in these images are not mounted to the black RX8 hood. I just lay it on top of the hood to take these photos. As you can see from the images, the hood scoop fit perfectly on top of the OEM RX8 hood.

and modify it just a little bit to look like the concept bumper...something I was actually going to do myself. You guys think you could do it?

I would like to see it mounted to the hood with a 3m tape to make sure it fits as flush with the tape. It would also be good to see it on a car and not a picture of the whie mazda prototype.

So far really like what I see.

Have you thought about offering it pre-painted to factory spec?
