Would you all be happy with something like this?

I think this is good, but it makes it so obvious that there is something going on. I like the stealth look...np=no profile. I would like something clean, yet functional. No huge gaping holes please, I drive my SVT in the snow.

OK.....this was a very fast mock up...........

here swazo !!!

I like the vent over the intake area. The other vents are too close to the black plastic wiper shroud. Makes my eyes look at the matching shroud. But that's just me.

Whatever is done, fine. I didn't have the time or funds for the other CF GB. I just don't want a hood that's too busy.

Let's get the show on the road.

We can't get the show on the road until we have the main attraction

So does everyone agree on the design with vents in the back, and the scoop by the intake? Speak now or forever hold your peace

How about everyone votes in THIS poll






How about from here on out, if you would prefer to see something other than what has been posted, YOU post pics so we can all see what you are talking about, and we'll take it from there

i'll give that a hell yeah but then again it was my idea course i am the pimp shizzle so MAKE IT!!

i like DEVIOUSDEV's hood. or something similar. if you go with a scoop like that infront of the filter we are gonna have probs with it getting wet. my fried with a gti did it and regrets it very badly now.

put the scoop near the filter...but kinda in front if it, so looking through the hole you can't really see the filter, then you (the buyer) can put the "flap" inthere to avoid any type of water spilling on the filter. I plan to do that, as well s build a cold air box around the filter, with a hole in the bottom so cold air flows in the scoop and out the bottom of the engine bay. Scoop problem solved. Stazi has cossie vents on his hood...right over where the belts are. No problems with water he said, just gets flung off when you start the car. i didn't realise with demon's design though, the vents are right over the coil pack.....I'd hate to have to change hoods when the weather is bad....Perhaps move them down a bit so they are clorse to the top of th eengine, no harm in the uim getting wet. Or maybe the jag vents might be a better option. I really don't car, I got what I want, and that is the scoop!!!
