Thank you. I don't know the exact name, but it is made by House of Kolors. I am pretty sure it can be looked up. As a matter of fact, I will need to find out soon myself since I want to paint a few things

The website is at 90% completion. 5x5" stickers like the one on the Sparco helmet are currently available.

As stated above, the website is almost complete. The pictures on myspace gives an idea of some of the things we will carry. We will be carrying some C-west apparel and exclusive items from Japan as well. However, "cars" is not our main focus. We represent a lifestyle that includes everything from motorsports and snowboarding to tattoos. Here is the blog and myspace for now until the site is up and running 100%.

Looking forward to seeing your new setup
Yeah, I know it sits lower than the Type-N which is nuts lol. It will even out the sideskirt and front bumper discrepancy though. Yes, the super polyurethane holds up very well.

Of course I remembered haha.

Thanks, apparently these are one of three sets ever made. I'm pretty sure there will be others coming down the pike. Great upgrade especially for SB owners.

I can't wait to see it painted. Are you painting it solid, or doing the vents black or something else? I'd get the CF one, but at nearly twice the cost and practically (if not the same weight) it's hard to justify.

Here is the one of the C-West Z's with what appear to be painted vents (Sorry for the huge pics):



Where did you pick up the hood, and how was the wait time? I just picked up the Long Nose front, and will be picking up the sides and rear within 6 months. Hopefully I can rock this hood as well. GREAT CHOICE!
