Default aliga......thanks for the ups!

For everyone who was worried about their engine getting wet, during the CF hood GB(which never happened). This hood came w/ removable rain gutters, to channel the water away from the motor!

Looks good! How long did you eventually end up waiting?

I posted pics of the Varis CF hood longtime but no one expressed interest since there was another groupbuy that never happened, lol.

Default no prob ...........Lex

You already know how long the wait is from Japan, so sure I'll get you one. I think I payed like $1200 shipped to the states..............and it was like $200 more for dry carbon!

Jimmy

P.S> fitment is perfect...OEM 100%

Do you have to primer it before you paint it or is it good enough to paint right on it?
