Can you post a picture of the nostrils from directly in front of the hood?

BTW...anyone have an idea of what I can do paint wise other than all NBM?

I think if your gonna put a hood like that on you better have twin turbos and the HP to back it up IMO. But it does look good except the nostrils

Going back and looking at this hood again, it seems like it's an OK choice for T/As. The extroverted styling works with the front end lines of a T/A. On a Formula, I don't think this hood would look good. They need something a little more subtle.

Q, from the underside it shows as if the center extractors are merely for beauty & no actual opening. Is this true only the side ones like the Firehawks are functional? Can you show us pics of how the center dips are finished??

There should be a GP for VFN when this hood is "officially" released to the public . Im sure there would be plenty of buyers. Since it is tax season

I can see where you're coming from, but this hood has a lot of potential, even though it's past the phase of designing and crafting. I just wish it had mecham ram air hood extractors instead of these boxy looking cuts..maybe when it's smoothed out and bonded it would loook better.

That is by far, the most SINISTER looking bird I've ever seen.

Oh yeah, and before someone says it, I KNOW IT'S A ******* T/A.

So in all seriousness, when is this hood gonna go on sale already? I'm planning on either getting this or the WS9, depending on the time of this hood's release.

I should have all the notes completed this weekend. Car is coming out of paint this weekend, too, so I'll have new photos as well.
