Default hood for bsp

Is it prohibited to have vented carbon hood in BSP class (not even cutting stock hood?)? If so, which class uses it?
I want to stay in BSP but want aftermarket hood also lol
thanks.

I'm pretty sure a hood has to remove stock in SP

Pretty sure stock hood only in SP. You'd be headed to Street Modified with vents.

Yes, I am the guy (blue z) that you talked to in San Diego. I didn't realize it was you.

That being said, I don't think your rear bumper is BSP legal either, so have at it for a hood

I thought it's ok to have front bumper replaced. if that right then I can prolly change the rear too.
i can keep the stock hood so that I cam swaap the hoods before each event. but my garage is as small as an *** hole lol

I don't think you can change the front or rear, but I'll have to look in the rules again and see.

You could "update" to a Nismo setup, but i'm not clear on how much you would have to update if you did.

For autocross, the same as any other front and rear bumper, NOTHING (maybe a slight advantage, nothing you will be able to tell with your suspension all fcuked up)

I'm lost on the 07/08 hood thing? I didn't notice you having a different hood in SD two weeks ago?

07/08 front bumper would actually be legal in BSP under update/backdate (I believe)
