Default Carbon fiber hood vent

$150+shipping
This is my 1st carbon hood vent I used to test fit on my car. It fits but Im making a slightly bigger version now and this one is for sale. There is at least 150 or more in materials here I just dont need a wall decoration anymore.
The weave isnt perfect as I was/am learning how to lay it up best. It has holes from the rivets where I installed it and some small marks but functions perfect.
I saw a 15* water and oil temp drop from this vent alone over stock

I can toss in a handful of black rivets to complete the install as well

My new mold? I'm still working on the plug. Its only going to be about 2" longer and have a less steep waterfall.
Ill post up when I get it done. I've been bouncing back and forth between my underbody panels designing my splitter, making splitter tunnels separately and this
