Joe, I see you went with the CF hood. Interesting... BTW, what's up with your back bumper?

Diaphragm contractions when practicing breathing through the new CF schnoz?

Looking Good Joe.

Am I to understand that Joe has actually spent money on purchasing a CF hood and is not just test fitting it for Lou?
How much are they?
I think I need to raise my prices....maybe just to Joe

I got the hood from 928 Int'l. Ask Jim I was staring at it for at least an hour. And then dropped over the edge. I need to make a few other purchases but you know when your stupified.

Randy - Yes I installed the hood and by myself. I do not have the shocks on yet but I have an idea for that.
Ron - I have 275 40 17 on the rear
Andy - Your killing me man
Ferris - I have the grey green interior. I will post that on this thread tomorrow.

Jim - I'll see you again Monday.

You guys have no idea how wonderful it is to be 9 miles from 928 Int'l. I spend my days off there. Ask Jim, he'll confirm.

Since Joe bought one ..we have another no "scoop" carbon hood hanging on the wall .....just waiting .. You have to figure if someone is making 928 parts who do you think they want to go to for them to be distributed to the largest number of potential customers? And yes , we do like a little Sake with our Sushi . If every ones's tastes were the same we would all be married to the same person. The carbon hood I bought years ago is carbon on the inside so it shows when you open the hood only ! The carbon hood normally sells for $619 , Joe got a better deal on the prototype. Plus he advertises for 928 International Spam comes in many shapes and sizes . Actually I love the enthusiasm of the brothers Serio , how can you not ?
