Default For the GXP owners...

For everybody who has been looking to get their hands on a set of Special Edition Heat Extractors, but doesn't want to pay the rediculous prices that most sites charge for them (you could almost buy a whole hood for that money).......I may have some very good news for you.

I found a company that makes an aftermarket version. I just bought them this morning, so I will post an update on quality, price, and where to buy as soon as UPS delivers them. Only down side I can tell from what I saw in the pictures is that there is no drip tray.

Here are pics....

No GXP came with them from the factory, but some people have been interested in adding them to the stock hood as another option to getting the Inferno hood.

Default Scoops are here!

The scoops arrived while I was away on vacation.....just got back today, so I opened them up and took some pics. Overall quality is very good.....since these are molded fiberglass, they will require more prep work than the OEM scoops in order to remove mold lines, minor imperfections, etc.



there is a small dimple on the front corner of each scoop that will need to be filled and sanded (most likely with resin or epoxy so that you don't have bondo cracking and falling out later)



here's a close-up of the openings


here's the underside


If you're interested in a set, here's the company info....

Fiberglass Fabricators Incorporated
3500 N Hawthorne St.
Chattanooga, TN 37406
(423) 629-9722

Or email them through their ebay store eBay My World - fiberglassfabusa

I picked this set up from their ebay store, but they don't currently have any listed right now. If you contact them directly though, you should still be able to order them.

Ask for the "Dragon Scoops"
Price was $70 shipped ($50 for the scoops and $20 for shipping)
Scoops will ship 7-10 business days after payment is received....apparently, they're made on an as-ordered basis.
