That looks great but every ricer in the world has that hood. But I would still like to know who makes it and how much.

Sorry you don't approve of the vented style hood they made. The honda hood there doesnt resemble the hood quality i posted but style is pretty close (vent is not that far up on the sc hood). I took the pics down for personal reasons. (i.e. I dont care to read negative posts truthfully)

As far as who makes it. I dont feel like giving out that information right now. All I'll say is its not made in US.

I never said I don't approve of the hood. I made the statment that the Shift hood has been copied and used by alot of ricers. I like the hood and would put it on my own car.

Ahhh I apologize I mistook your statement. I'll get one of the hoods here and take pics of it to show quality and what not and go from there. If you seriously interested PM me.

Yeah if you saw the pics before i removed it. It is manufactured by a japanese company that does some of the BEST quality ive seen in a long time.

There are already CF(Carbon Fiber) hoods made for the SC300/400 by many companies over here in Southern CA. One of my close highschool buddy owns a shop over here that can help you out with any questions that you may have on ordering a carbon fiber hood. They are extremely highquality too with rolled edges and CF underside as well. If you would like his contact info send me a PM/e-mail.
