Theyve got a new Carbon Fiber hood on the website thats imported from the Netherlands and are the first *so they say* to be importing it in the states..

I have seen their site.. some of their stuff is decently priced.. you can get replacement cargo covers from them. I almost bought one from them... then decided to buy mine from PATDIESEL. Less of a risk for quality in my mind even if the price was a bit more. I dont know anyone that has ordered from Evilyeti.com yet though. Be interesting to hear some feedback about them.

The hood is made by Aeroworks and Evilyeti imports it through a Dutch company specialized in Mazda Aftermarket products. So far the hood has only been available in Europe. It's very good quality. There's four of us in Holland here now with the VRS hood, every single one fitted perfectly. It has very good strength and the scoops have removable caps on the inside to protect the electrics from rain. I payed 700 euro's for it, certainly worth it's money if you ask me.

Pretty dont matter.. functionality is all that does. Having one of those would sure make doing the motor mounts a lot less painfull ;) Where did you find yours? I'm actually thinking about going to a machine/welding shop and getting the materials and having my friend weld it all together and then taking the screw part out of a huge C clamp (I even have one laying around) to use as the hook/retainer piece.
