are kaminari and buddy club my only two options for a vented CF Hood ?
how is the fit and quality for the 2?

 

nope... Motor-FX is releasing a drift style vented hood in about 2 weeks.. no pics released yet, but i'm anticipating large sales... i'm planning on getting one once i have the money and patience to wait.

 

Is that like the invader style vent ?

 

any updates on the motor fx?

 

Please check

in case anyone cares: i have heard nothing but bad things about AIT. let's hope they're not the next tCtunerz.

 

last i heard, motor-fx was working on finishing up the prototype design... actual production should be a few weeks from now

 

What bad things have you heard about AIT Racing.com?

Only thing i heard about the ATI one was the spacing between the sides of the hood and the car. I need to look again but in one picture you can clearly see into the engine (I think). Any idea what the Motor-FX one will look like ?

 

i have an ait hood check my profile.

 

Hmm, I like that alot. Would be perfect with turbo. Any rain issues?

 

kaminari fits perfect!!! i have it and the only problem i had was the latch not being long enough so i just unbolted it and stuck some washers under it so that it sat lower. now it latches just fine. no rain issues due to the placement of the vent. its kinda pricey but kaminari makes quality products. it was worth every penny imo!!!

ait's is nice as well. only thing i didnt like about it is the rain would get right in. they do have a piece you can put under it to close it so that no water gets in but then the vent becomes unfuctional at that point. kaminari designed theres to where water going in doesnt cause any problems.

i think they both look nice and you cant go wrong with either one. if you have the extra money though i say go with kaminari.

 

nope, ait alos has a plate that goes under for water not to get in.

 

hands down to coi @ motor-fx. NOTHING but GREAT customer service from such a great company. I talked to coi personally and like steve @ Bbist they make sure they ship out the correct parts out to their customers and they fit perfect with no flaws in design. If motor-fx is coming out with a that drift style hood the fuji cant wait to see it.
The kaminari hood looks sweet also, looks like theone Bbist has for the xb. The fuji cant wait to see what motor-fx comes out with next.

 

Any more news for any vented hood?

 

There are a few more vented hoods coming out. Not sure when but the molds are already done. They look great!

 

any pics?

 

spray. how much did your hood run you (if you dont mind me asking)?

 

Opinions on this hood ?

He dosen't even have a vented hood for the TC, and I quote "Hi, this is a misprint, we don't have the vented hood for the Scion, we only have the OEM Style hood. I will have to modify this listing. If you like I can send you a stock picture of the OEM Style hood."
