I love how the J's guys don't realize the added value of making something in an Autoclave. But can state that their hood is better.

Wow I never noticed J's products are basically from first molding just rebadged. If thats the case... wouldnt it be alot cheaper to get it from first molding themselves? If so why dont the vendors sell it?

[QUOTE=RevJunky,Oct 21 2004, 02:37 AM] Mugen: $2,600, Dry Carbon, molded rain gutters, race proven and tested
vs.
J's: $2,400, Wet resin carbon, rain blocking plates, proven Mugen style

for $200, I know what I'd go with!

thats what im talking about...cut out the middle man and get the type V hood from first molding....

www.firstmodling.com


if any vender can import their products we can save a little money on a very expensive hood

I can get this hood for 1.100 euro INCLUDING shiping. (930 without)

Just because your local dealer sells it 2.200 doesnt mean the price is that high!

Well than share the wealth! I was itching to order the J's rear diffuser, now that someone has brought up that the J's CF products are just rebadged... I wouldnt mind getting the same item for a better price.

Remember there are three different types of the type V hood...I can only assume that was for the marketing purposes...lol
