Re: found a gst.

he says he has new brakes and new tires, and is trying to get the money for a down payment. he has it in a cover parked cuz he dont want to put anymore miles on it. so yeah i hopefully everything is ok.

I think thats a good excuse for george to change the hood to a cf hood , if he buys the car. Let us know what happens.

Re: found a gst.

I really want to get a CF bumper but I've heard way too many horros stories about the hoods warping, fading, bad fitment, etc...just like body kits. Any comments?

(PS...I like the invader style CF hood...anyone know what happens if it rains and the water goes through the vent onto the engine? I mean, yeah, du, your shitll get wet but....damage? What happens to the Evo hood in rain? Some sort of bypass valve to prevent water?)

Re: found a gst.

OEM style CF hood

A little water isn't going to hurt anything. You can pressure wash the engine bay minus intake and battery, but I don't like hood scoops/vents so...

Re: found a gst.

yeah , huh? I am sure during mild/heavy rains, water is bound to come through by the gallon,and if youre on the move, cold stuff on very hot stuff leads to cracking stuff which is BAD stuff. lol.
