folks it was just a one off to test some things for some engineers to play with. it wasnt even supposed to see the light of day. we only have pics because they made the mistake of driving by sam mitani. there's no reason it did or didnt "make it" he just doesnt like it.

If I could get this bumper in urathane, I'd buy it, instead of the Knights Sport that I've been saving for.

Ok here is the "almost" finish prototype hood scoop. Thank all for being so patient.







We can offer this hood scoop in fiberglass material for all those who wants to paint it to match their OEM hood. We will also make this scoop in carbon fiber material for the Carbon Crazy guys like myself. As many of you know, carbon fiber materials had gone up on prices due to shortage of supplies. We will do our best to offer a reasonable price on carbon fiber hood scoop for those whose wishes to make it in CF.
Please let me know your input on this scoop so far. The production will start right away when everyone is happy how the scoop look.

The price for carbon fiber will be determine on how many people want CF.
Fiberglass material will be a whole lot cheaper, but you have to get it painted.

I would need a re-count of how many people like CF and how many people like Fiberglass. Please post "material request" next to ur screen name

Awesome... thats what I want to hear!!

I guess the biggest thing is price adn fitment..


What are your tolerances going to be like? will it be just stick on, and cut out the bottom? or do you think it will require some fitment from car to car?
