C63 Vented CF Hood?

I wanted to know if anyone would be interested in a vented carbon fiber hood for a group buy? I have a company that is willing to work with me, but they need a minimum of 10 orders to keep the price low... this is just a feeler to see if there is any demand out there... the price will definitely be low...

Sign me up. The vents need to be functional above the exhaust manifolds.
Would they also look at a ram air hood with vents?

Yes, which company would produce it and would the vents be ala the Brabus bullit bonnet design?

Would save much weight thats for sure!

I wanted to know what you guys would think about having vents put in on the two power domes on the hood. It is right above the exhaust manifolds, and it would still look very oem. The domes would still be there, but just slits would be put in without changing the shape of the domes...
