Alright as scheduled i dropped off my hood to Gemini this morning...
The CF hood should be ready in 1-2 weeks tops! WOOHOO!
Marc has told me that for all you faithful ppl that has shown interest in this product... if you were to put down a deposit you will get a one time special GB offer price that will not be avaliable to later sales.
Email info@geminicomposites.com and inquire about the RX-8 hood and Marc will answer all your questions about price, payments, and/or progress on the production of the CF hood.

I was lookin at the V-WEAVE ( mirror V shaped weave on both sides! ), but the only thing is that it's not Kevlar...
So I might actually go with the SILVER KEVLAR/CF hood...
It would be sick if my first choice could be kevlar...

Hey xXcfeboXx, i just got off the phone with Marc and he updated me on the progress so i thought is ohuld bring it forth to you also.
He told me the top mold is finnished and the bottom mold is going to be started tomorrow, it will be around 1 - 1.5 weeks when the first batch is ready :D
so have you decided if you are goign with a kevlar or not yet? :p
