I like it.

If my CF hood cracks anymore than it is, you can count on me to order one up, lol

we're testing a new body shop with another hood right now, if that one comes out fine, then we'll give them the SC hood.


I'll take some pics as soon as we have some progress.

Talking Plug finished! Prototype pictures!!!!
It actually came out better than we though! The design looks slightly different than the toms.
We had it made from scratch, just some pictures, all the vents flow perfectly with the body lines, (no cut and paste)

To me it looks like a combination of the scoot RX7 hood and the Toms SC430 in a way. This is definitely going on my SC.

Looks batmobile material, I'd like to see it painted and installed to get a better view of it. Neat work though!

That will do a GREAT job venting some of the hot air out of my engine bay!
