New hood just came in what do you think?

I just got it from Japan. It took almost 5 months to get here. I like it a lot it will drop my under hood temps a whole lot especially in road course situations. It will not hurt in Autocrosses either.

I am waiting on a new RE FC2000 bumper then its all getting painted.

Look at the bright side you will not have to endure trolls from the honda section dropping in to start a flame war over their friends turbo civic anymore.

I am sure AF is not gone for good it will re-emerge.

Is that the re bumper that includes the sleek headlight deal? I see those when I dream at night.

wow, that thing is mean... your sleeper value is dropping when you add something with a look that agressive! haha

how much did you pay for that thing (with shipping)... its def. one of the best hoods i've seen.

It was not cheap. But, you get what you pay for.

It was $1250 shipped from Japan to Cali then to Florida.

The build quality and fit of this hid is every bit as good as stock.

I got it here. If you contact Chuck tell him Jims5543 sent you.

That is, by far, the funniest shit i ever heard.

Awkward but funny. lol :eek7: :lol2:

5 months is a long wait, but for a hood like that its worth it. thats a sick hood man

I agree!!

Anyhoo... i couldnt ever justfy spending 1200 bucks on a hood like that, no matter how nice. But it does look pretty badass. I bet it'll make defrosting the windshiled in the winter a breeze too :D

Right now i'm having a hard time deciding whether I like the TII or N/A hood better. On the one hand, the N/A hood is nice snd smooth and flows oh so well with the rest of the car, but on the otherhand, the TII hood says "hey! lokout for me!"...but do I want to warn people? hmm...

I think the TII hood adds even further to the curves, and gives it a more agressive look. I say just throw a big FMIC in and that will say "Hey, lookout for me!" way before the TII hood will :)

plus the TII hood is lighter isn't it? or is that just compared to some NA models? cuz I know its like 35 pounds less than my NA hood is, stupid steel hoods, bah!

WEll, if/when I DO go front mount, it'll be discreet. Not like IN YOUR FACE, blingin polished up kinda thing.

haha yea, but still, people will see it, and know whats up

if it were me i would go with the n/a hood. the tII hood is nice but if your a sleeper then i would just stick with the n/a hood.
