    I've posted elsewhere about my efforts tracking down the guy who makes steel TA scoops. Well, here it is  :bigsmile:

    I don't mind at all. He's selling them for $1100. It's higher than the good quality fiberglass, but I really didn't want fiberglass on my car, and I still had my original flat hood.

    Domingo from Peru? I wanted a set of his rear window louvers SO badly. He has sold out and does not make them anymore. Nice build up of your car, it's getting done! Will be great to have peace of mind knowing it's done right.

    Yep, Domingo from Peru. I didn't know that he was the guy who had been making the louvres. I know at one point Neil had done a group buy; maybe with another group buy he'd do a run of louvres.  :dunno:

    Are you going to blend the scoop and the hood together or leave it as it?
