Default new items from asm

I 'll bet you these bolts will be more than mugen bolts





I can not wait for these to hit the u.s, it looks like a regular asm hood with the cut hole. As long as it does not cost more than $3,500.00 u.s.d. I am ok with it. The only items I want from asm are dry carbon trunk, hood & fiber glass front diffuser. I could not justify myself to drop around $5000.00 for the dry carbon front diffuser.

this is a prototype hood, I do not think it will fit the s2k with the factory airbox.
What ya think?

My only complaint is if the hood is designed for an ITB setup why still have the hump where the Mugen/J's/ASM Intake would be? I understand some people might use them to channel air to the itb's, but is that not the point of the new cutout?

License plate bolts look like the Mugen ones, probably made by the same manufacturer better be the same price or cheaper

Already have the ASM plate bolts on my car
They're about double the price of Mugen and are a limited run of 300 sets according to the ASM blog.
As for the complaint about leaving the Mugen intake hump in the new ASM ITB ducted hood if you look under the hood of the ASM time attack car they have an aluminum air channel in place of where the Mugen intake use to be that directs cold air from the bumper mouth to the ITB's.That new little vent can't flow enough volume of air to support all 4 ITB's alone and the two ITB closer to the front of the engine suck most of the cold air from the air channel leaving the 2 remaining ITBs in back to suck hot engine air so you need both.
