Not sure what’s a Subaru GTI, there are a few VW GTI.

What is your definition of “Rice”?

This is fully functional with vents to reduce under the hood temp.... something a Z06 desperately need. Plus the raised cowl will accommodate larger LT5 2650 Charger.

I'm not a fan of it. The cowl looks forced rather than OEM looking. The big hood scoop looks way too deep and angled oddly. Good work on getting a new hood out for our cars, but it's not for me. I'd like to see something a little more OEM looking that maybe uses the stock hood vent/scoop.

I don't care for the side-vents at all. Any intentions of offering it without the side-vents?

Will need to make a new mould. If I can get 5 deposit on the no vents hood, I’ll crank out a new mould ASAP.

A little off topic but is your front splitter, the OEM GM Stage 3?

Thanks.

I have TWO Hoods. Here is a couple words about Deity Motorsports. I was the first guy that ordered Carbon both sides. took about 4 weeks and my hood got here. Unwrapping all of the cardboard/bubble wrap my excitement dampened when the front tip of Carbon Fiber was fractured. I texted Khoa and he said he would get right on to complete a 2nd hood and get it out to me. Came in last week, (3 weeks). It's on and drawing small crowds. I still have the damaged one and will wait for a scheduled pickup from Khoa. These guys did me GOOD!!! Very happy with the end result.

10th hood sold! Finally caught up on orders. One hood done this week and one more next week.

Finally removed my prototype hood and got my own double sided carbon on! That carbon vented cowl view from the driver seat is pretty damn cool
