New CF Hood for the SVX!?

I recently just found this website. It has a different style of CF hood. I kinda like it. Has anyone ever bought from them before? The pic isn't a svx hood, but i'll try emailing them to see if they can take a pic of the actually svx hood.

They have 100 in stock??? Why do I find that highly unlikely?? The hood pictured is obviously off of another car - wrong shape...
Have you called them yet to see if you can get a picture of the actual hood? Will it handle the stock latch and struts?

It's not bad looking at all. I'd need to see one installed on an SVX to be sure I like it more than the traditional scooped glass hoods for the SVX but based on the example in the pic I think it might look good on an SVX.

Not bad looking at all! I kinda like the reverse vents for heat expulsion...

where does one order such a hood with the 'extra' ? does she require much care? and does she stay put at 80+ mph?

$200 per hood ! ? !

That's an awesome price!

But they need an order for 100 of them... are they just messing w/ us

Id be willing to pay twice as much if we can do an order of 10.

Sorry, I'm confused. Is it the hood at the begining of this thread that is the 100+ descussion or the legacy hood? I like the first better the the latter.

I'd change the boots on the hood to small pumps or something.....I like to see a bit more leg


I do like the ground effects on the mercedes or lexus on the left.....not sure I like the rim, but the performance tire looks good.
