I could bring these to SevenStock if anyone is going and wants to pick up. A $50 non-refundable deposit that’s applied to the purchase price would be required beforehand since they’d only fit in my truck that I otherwise wouldn’t use tomorrow.

Hows the fitment on the seibon hood? I can't find a Varis hood for the life of me.

Just notice that the second of the two styles has a cover below
the openings to keep the rain water off the engine. (I guess??)
Which is nice, but this design will only pull air from the front of the engine
not over the engine which defeats the purpose of having vents on the hood in the first place....
Or has my brain taken a short vacation??? ...

vent covers are removable so people can remove/install as needed for storage, storms, etc.

Not to be a hard nose here but it looks like the "cover " (catch pan) is attached with pop rivets.
The "on - off" plan could be a pain in the you know what...
But, if the buyer installed "rivnuts" it would be doable....

I’ll be driving from southern California (north of L.A.) to northern California (Bay-ish area) and be there from 24-26 Dec. I could bring one or both hoods for folks that live there or are along the route. There is a $100 non-refundable fee to cover fuel to be paid in advance since I’d be using my truck that I otherwise wouldn’t drive.

Any Chance you'll be doing this again in the spring/summer?

Any word on this? Passively interested, more for the summer, when the venting would be more useful (Traffic/spirited driving).

I could. I’m repositioning to spend more time in Cali in a few months. It’d be faster and probably cheaper in gas for you to drive down without a hood, install it on your car, then drive up.
