Default Very Hot hood

In the latest "Corvette Enthusiast" there is a company called Single Source Enterprises. There is a pic of a C6 Z with their hood. They advertise it for C5 and C6. It has the look of the vintage L 88 hood.Does anyone have pics or more info? There is no web address only a phone number in the article. I think the hood looks awesome on the C6 Z as shown. Maybe it will look even better on the C5Z.

Sorry but I dont have any info on this hood. I am just amazed these days when a company doesn't have a website! I cant imagine a better source of advertising and for selling your product. I ride a Harley as well as having a Z and there a lot of companies making aftermarket parts and you see them at shows (that you ride to and cant obviously buy some huge part etc and take with you) and you ask them for an internet address and they tell you they dont have one. WTF?! Missed oppurtunity in my book in this day and age.

Just having the back vented is all the functionality he planned into them. To be honest one down side to these hoods is the weight, they tip the scales between 32-35 lbs nearly twice the weight of stock one and the other is price.
