Default Hood Vents

Im in the process of creating aluminum hood vents and wanted to get a feel for anyone who might be interested. If enough people want them I'd get a full sheet cnc'd.

Im not sure of the price point yet but Im not looking to make a living here, just hook some fellers up.

Color is just for contrast...

Im not sure but once I get some made and bolted to an NB we can chat.

They are closer to getting cut, my buddy's shop has been too busy lately but he said he'll try in the next couple weeks.

Finally got them cut. Once I get them bolted up and fitted I'll see about making some more.

I think a little trim on the hood bracing will be needed. I'll update once I get them placed.

Im located in Apopka. I think we met at The Parts Group a little while back, chatted in the parking lot?
