It is a one off hood that was designed by Isamu I believe.

Just got aerojackets vented fenders off another member, I'm trying to find a hood that blends with its style, but still has an aggressive look.

I like this one a lot but the other options were the
VIS Terminator hood


and the AMS VIS


I wonder if aerojacket would do one of these for me.

That's what Isamu told me.

I'm interested in the hood as well but nobody is making it.

What about this one as an alternative? SEIBON VSII Style to be exact.

I had inquired about that very hood that we are all drooling over, but there seemed to be some issues with the designer and the production provider. I didn't get into it too deep, but I was very active in pursuing this item while I worked my initial build. I will make another attempt later on this year (probably the Fall/Winter), when I build my motor and pursue a few minor cosmetic/interior upgrades. Otherwise, it will be the SEIBON unit for me.

Thanks!

I was thinking about that hood too but am a little concerned about the fit. I've seen both good and bad from them. No different from any company that makes this type of stuff though.

The hood on the blue Z would be relatively easy to recreate if you know someone with good metal skills.

It sounds like we are on similar upgrade paths.

It is a sexy hood. I also like that Amuse vented bonnet... But dry carbon fiber, import fees and Amuse price make it astronomically expensive.

I know someone who is in the market to sell an Authentic Amuse kit that already has it here in the states, though it isn't CF...

I don't need carbon fiber, I'd prefer to paint it anyways. the dry carbon fiber one was $6500.

They'll be red when you get them, so long as you don't mind stripping/repainting, I can PM you the info?
