Does anyone know who makes this hood? Or any of the other add-ons?

Please post a link to the manufacturer's site if you have it.

Thanks -

There was a thread about another 05 with the same hoods and scoops (satin silver w/ red stripes - yuk!). Everything was custom made and the company is a little reluctant to sell the parts individually, if I remember correctly.

I am pretty sure that's the BBR (Blow By Racing) hood.

I thought it was too, but did not see it on their site... Perhaps I will give them a call.

Thanks

That is not the RKSport hood - it is must be the Blow By Racing hood.

Yep - BBR - I just got off the phone with them.

They have them in stock for $365. I live in indy so shipping is probably $150, and add another $300 for paint...

Per my conversation with BBR today, not currently - but people have made them functional. The reasoning is that there is little "ram air" effect at normal driving speeds...

I emailed them about this as well... not only is it non-functional, they have no plans on making a functional version.

Too bad - it would really be nice if it was functional...
