Thought this was cool. It's a CF hood with the scoop molded in. It's from raceonusa.com

Longboard

 

Looks nice, but would look much better actually painted.

 

I think I threw up a little in my mouth

 

I really like those hoods...but I would paint mine so I did not attract unwanted attention...and it is more sleeper that way

 

Croc-butter, heh heh. Anyone else read from Maddox?

"You know that feeling you get when you're full and slightly nauseous and you burp and you can taste the partly digested food in the back of your throat? There isn't a word in the english language to succinctly describe it, but I will hereby refer to it as: croc-butter." -Maddox

Anyway, that hood is pretty cool, but I don't care for that aerokit.

 

I would paint something like Tuls with a little carbon showing. The thing I like is molded in scoop like Gnat did to his stock hood.

Longboard

 

I think that's called a "verp"; part vomit-part burp. Yeah, sounds almost as nasty as the taste.

 

I love maddox after all...it is thebestpageintheuniverse

 

Very clean. Go for it.

 

I would prefer it without the MINI emblem -- for an even cleaner look.

 

Agree, Gnat looks hood looks awesome.

 

very sleek indeed.
As for the orciari kit, sometimes i like it, sometimes I don't...

 

I think it depends on the color of the Orciari kit. The red with black accents is pretty sharp.

 

That front grill is just terrible.

 

this the same hood??

 

The Seibon hood that LB had posted has a molded scoop and it's *****! It likes to crack. The hood posted above is the ViS hood that 99% of us run and has a detachable scoop...In fact I put one on today...

 

I prefer the VIS hood because my DFIC scoop blended just fine.

 

So the VIS hood doesn't have a blended in hood scoop?

Longboard

 

I think he may be talking about the m7 CF/DFIC scoop matching the CF pattern on the hood...

Seibon="molded" scoop, like Nate.
VIS=detatchable scoop, like stock...
I believe...

 

Bzzz… Wrong… Seibon hood below.



You ca buy just the scoop if you want.


It appears that Seibon does not make a hood with a molded in scoop. If someone bought one they got ripped off by a fake. There is a LOT of fake Seibon out there. They have a stellar reputation in the Japanese import scene but you have to make sure you are getting the real deal.

 

Every Seibon hood I have seen has a molded scoop.....and that pic looks like a ViS pic with a Seibon logo....

 

Same here

 

Perhaps they redesigned the product. Either way the photos are hot linked directly from the Seibon site, not some goofy 3rd party site. So I tend to believe that they are the real deal.

 

Do you know what the prices are for these? I checked their site, but I didn't see any prices. I guess if you have to ask....
