Anybody thinking about one of these hoods needs to check out the RSI "Black Friday Sale". They're running a killer deal on it!

These CF hoods are awesome looking and adds a nice touch but how do you repair those nasty rock chips or scuffs (in an area not covered with clear bra)?

Easy. You have the whole hood clear bra'd. I'm getting my new hood wrapped next month by Premier..

A update on the hood.. Thank's to Towdawg I found the correct hood struts to work with this carbon hood.. It works perfect! Just like OE..

Here's the strut number 6170..




I also tested this hood on two track day events at Laguna Seca.. This hood does not need any other reinforcements.. No hood pins, or a rope to secure it.. The hood does not even fap at high speeds, and I am flying on the front straight.. Another reason for this is the design of the Gen 4 hood.. It has those 6 large air vents, and any air that does goes underneath the hood will get vented out immediately.. No chance of any air pockets etc.. It's not like a hood on a Mustang for example,but looking at the front bumper and where the hood is.. The air flows over the hood to begin with so no worries..





Here's a video of my last track day.. You can see how stable the hood is.. It's just like the stock hood..

Any modifications to the hood, other than the struts and where did you purchase the struts.

No other modifications.. Just take your stock hood pad,and transfer it on to the Seibon hood.. The struts you can buy at Autozone, Oreillys, Pep boys.. Or Rock Auto online..

Cool...who makes the struts? I saw the part number posted earlier, but I must have overlooked the manufacturer.

Rhino PAC 6170, a google search will pick up on the other site(alley)with the info.
