How about you do nothing else on MR2Board until you put your company in good standing with our user Phoenix.

It sounds to me that RACEONUSA owes Phoenix 3 TRD MR2 spoilers. Until that situation is rectified, I highly doubt you, or any of your affiliates will be doing any business on MR2Board.

I've quoted all your posts because there's a pretty good chance you'll just delete them all and disappear.

This hood was made from scratch, using sheet metal and fiberglass. We will be making it in carbon fiber and fiberglass. I will update this thread with additional pics as we complete the hood.

The Karmotion hood would also be functional with or without a hole in the frunk firewall since the skeleton is vented underneath, to lift air out of the radiator compartment and out of the frunk area drop vent.

However, the massive scoop wouldn't be taken advantage of, and primarily be for aesthetics if the firewall is not cut.

I will post more pics of the underside once it's complete...
