Carbon Fiber Hood Thoughts
Need an opinion. Looking to buy a new one soon-ish and not sure what direction i want to go in. I currently have a stock style CF hood, and i wouldnt mind getting another one, but just seeing what others opinions are.

Re: Carbon Fiber Hood Thoughts
I like to the D-Max style for Levins and the drop vent for Truenos. The stock is good for either IMO.

Put it to a vote Mark!
Re: Carbon Fiber Hood Thoughts
I would say stock unless you are planning on turbo then i would say drop vent
Re: Carbon Fiber Hood Thoughts
I've been considering doing a drop vent or even drift style due to the fact it gets quite warm on hot days drifting... that damn supercharger adds a little heat :/

Everyone vote!

I'm not going to be much help unless I know whether it is a Levin or Trueno, coupe or hatch.
Meanwhile, I left my magnifying glass at home to view those hoods on my 22" monitor.

Re: Carbon Fiber Hood Thoughts
well, i ended up paying for the Drift Style hood, but because of it being DESTROYED IN SHIPPING, it was sent back and my money was refunded.
I'm probably going to wait a while before i do buy another hood unless i'm in a bind...still don't know which style i'd like though.
