But to say air will flow into it is false, it's too far forward. Air will be sucked out of it, not in. And that may well play havok with the cooling airflow through the radiator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does data suggest that having it that far forward works better than having it a little further back? Has any data been collected from temp probes under the engine bay? [/quote] Only with a laser temperature gun, is this profound proof? [u]probably not[/u], so on that basis if comment has mislead anyone I do apologize and suggest not buying it if my information has mislead you. Watching the heat haze come out whilst sitting at the lights you can see that with anyone's eyes.

Russ [/quote] Hi Russ, depends who paints it and brand and quality of materials, I think a good Job by a professional well start around $500.

[/quote] that's what had done it for me to having it approved means not having to worry about mr.plod or insurance concerns, I hope to have the prototype bonnet back on my car for HPF Ford dyno day on the 14th Nov, gives more people a chance to see it on a car.

The paint presentation isn’t to good, after the bonnet was used to make the mould it did kill the paint work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they re jig that plug if you get enough demand to change it?

I don't see why more people haven't jumped on this, there ain't many options out there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
