I'm still interested, as long as my head won't get chopped off if I get in a rear-end collision! Thanks BenzoBoi!

I'd be interested, as long as you can guaranty a few things (kidding of course).....

1. If vented, my engine won't get wet
2. If non-vented, the heat will dissipate better than the stocker
3. My head wont get chopped off in an accident

lol...hope we make it this time

No Heads Lost!

With the combined angles of the windshield and the CF Hood when it is torn off it's mounting points at the rear of the hood (the rear of the hood would have to lift some, increasing it's angle from horizontal even more) would send the hood over the roof of the car as it glanced off the windshield. Seems like a logical chain of events to me.
