Not really sure what I think about this. I have looked at it a half dozen times or so, and just can't make up my mind if this is cool, or crap. Doesn't really matter either way, I am not going to buy it.

Here's the pictures. And yes, it came off of a ricer site

Yeah, I'll pass too. Is that a filter under the vents on that picture from the roof angle?

It is certainly, um different.

It may not be too bad after it is painted...

It's carbon fiber, I don't think you are supposed to paint it. I personally do not like it at all :notnice:

Carbon fiber - UGHGHH....

The design?
It was fine from the front - then when I saw the other angel... WAY TOO #^%$#@% busy..... if it just the center section then.... maybe..... but not with those huge side vents too.....

:notnice:

Yeah, a bit busy. But it would take care of the hood lift issue!

It looks like a cross between a cobra R and saleen hood. To many vents for my taste...I'll pass on this one.

The only way you could describe that as "clean" would be if they washed it before taking the pics

That design is way too cluttered for my tastes :notnice:
