Nice car! I like the hood. Either that one or the Fang Mystery 7 or 8 setup. Can see it on my 06. Cool, more option just keep popping up.


PS: Thanks for the link and info!

Well I like it. But I don't think its the nicest out there. The rear exhaust exit looks hideous. Too low, they have changed back bumper area and have no cut outs, therefore the mufflers are hanging way down, as you can see at there site. If they wanted to change that bumper they should have made exit holes like the concept car instead of hanging mufflers down to see them from side easily. Also I was excited about that hood, as it looked like it would be perfect for the midwest motorsports cai. But as there pictures show, it is not functional venting, both in back and up front. So just for looks. Scoops are whats out there, nothing custom there. I like the rounded scoops a little better myself. Plus the price they want, 52 grand. I don't think so. But it does look nice.

The mystery 7 is very cool! They bring that hood forward to the nose and it makes all the difference in the world. Looks VERY mean. Last I heard, they should be ready by the end of this month. The Mystery 8 hood is very similar to the Dream Car Factory one with the "nostrils" way up front and vents in the back. However, the Fang hood is functional.

I'm not digging the hype they have over this car on their website. It's a nice looking car but the stripes don't look too good on the bumpers. The V6 bumper on the back looks out of place along with the exhausts hanging too low. Basically it is a car you could build yourself for probably a lot less than what they are asking for it. It's pretty much just a bunch of overpriced bolt on's.

I like the side scoops. But they are about the only part that's not listed for purchase....

the problem with the mystery 8 is that it only works with their additional front fascia piece which I think looks like crap, I just want the hood and the dream car hood can easily be made functional before getting painted.

I agree - the parts that I really like are the hood and side scoops... The fascia is a little over the edge for me.

I love the look of that hood- but it costs an arm and a leg

Never mind, I just checked it out... Looking at the bottom of the hood, you'll have to do some cutting and re-routing of the front air vents, they are not functional for $800+??? That's a little crazy! I rather have the RKS Cali Dream for $150 less...
