we carry it - it will be added to our site with current pricing this weekend. Pricing is in line with other JDM brands such as C West, Top Secret, INGS, etc. I personally love the hood!

I really like the look of this kit. It give another option to the line of the C-West Long Nose Type-E and Top Secret G-Force Long Nose. Should be nice for a weekend warior at the track.

Wouldn't that mean you'd be some form of ricer.....a weekend warrior only races on weekends. To rid yourself of the ricer stamp....I think every day is a requirement.

My mistake. Robin is 100% correct. Big wing, and driving on the weekends only = Ricer!!

Robin = Ricer! j/k

My only question is whether or not you get adequate air through the radiator with that nose. I know that with the Blitz front bumper, you gain a couple MPH on the track with that longer nose....but that you'll overheat the car because not enough air is getting into the radiator.

And...looking at the smoke test....tells me they haven't lifted that wing enough. They need to get it up into the clean air so it can work.

looking at the strips I don't really get what they are trying to show. it doesn't look that good to my untrained eye. there seems to be alot of turbulence (off the rear window for instance and around the canards on the front bumper).

then again, I am used to seeing F1 cars like this and those guys manage the airflow around every single surface.

In the second picture it looks like the front opening in the bumper has enough breathing room to provide enough air to keep it cool. It looks like it has a larger opening then the C-West kit!

The little tab deals are to show air direction and/or plotting for a computer if they are getting that technical.
