Anyone using this hood?

[Mattboyd]

I have been contemplating a verus hood vent.
I came across this while searching and was wondering if anyone here has this on

their mk5.

Wondering if it's a good buy or a no bueno.

Going to imagine a duraflex hood is going to suck so much.

Yeah, it looks good but ... duraflex.
Wasn't sure if anyone had any knowledge of it.

Duraflex never makes their products for any form of performance, it's always just "to look cool" (usually doesn't), so I wouldn't trust it. It'd be more cost effective to get a hood vent and pay a body shop to install it for you, if you care about the performance aspect of it.

Also, that hood messes up the body lines of the Supra so much. I know the arch lines are still there, but that incoherent bubble would clash horribly with the double bubble roof.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the input.
