No problem Bill..... As for the NO PIC YET, have not seen it, please send link....

Big Ballin, the Sticker was put on by me, it did not come on the hood. I put the sticker on, as I am sponsored car by Deft Racing.... So in order for me to get the love from Deft Racing, my job as a show car, is to show the love back, thats how it works. So those who want to get sponsored but dont like the stickers... will most likely never get the sponsor....its a give and take deal...... Thanks to all....

so the stock louvers should be easy to install?

any reasons why you went with the hood pins and not the hood latches they offer on deftracing.com?

Well I had got the hood pins from a local shop in my area for a good price and was told that those were the best hood pins out there. THey were easy to install as I used the holes on the evo were the rubber guards use to be... The hardest and scariest part was having to drill on my beautiful hood.

the hood looks very clean from the pictures. i decided on the flush latches. hopefully they arent too much of a pain to install.

So you don't like the sticker, but you'll put it on if he "pays" you... Way to NOT get sponsored...

mine's coming sometime next week, i was afraid at first that this would look like the seibons... which look like crap. But from those picutre the weave looks very uniform and the clear looks like its veyr uniform too.... i sure hope it stands up to winters... heat form the engine and cold from the weather... I'll post up some picture sof it as well when i put that sweet thing on!.

Why not just put the stock hood on for winter? Save this one some abuse? That's what I'd do, and might if I ever go for a CF hood...
