Flyin Miata extraction hood - Mariner blue
 

Hey guys,

I wanted to post this here before I go on ebay. This is a great forum so I'd like to give any fellow members that would like one to get their chance before I list it for auction. I have receipt of purchase, paid $710 including shipping and handling. Paint is in great condition, I'd say on a strict scale a 9 out of 10. Has black mesh in the vents, heat shield under the hood on the vent about the turbo (see pictures). One spot of rubbing where my old air filter rubbed a bit of the paint under the hood, nothing you can see from the outside.

My new hood will be here some time next week, and I plan on fitting it soon thereafter. If someone is interested I will wait to put it on ebay. Realistically the hood cannot ship out, until my new one is on.

P.S. Pictures show silver mesh, I have since replaced it with black mesh.

Any questions, etc etc send me a PM.

Vash-

What is the price you are asking?

I'd have to repaint it RED, but I'll buy it for the right price. Lets say $200 with shipping included?
Your buddy,
LOLA

If I was rich....I'd say deal! Thanks LOLA! :bowrofl:

Right now I am taking offers. Low balls like LOLA's I wont even consider. :giggle:

Vash-

I'll go 204.44

Vash,
I'm glad that you're open to offers, but my post was supposed to be a subtle reminder of what Patsmx5 just told you: prices need to be listed.

Damn. I even read the rules....lol. I didnt see that anywhere. Lowest I would go is $400, not including shipping. And local pickup is always welcome.

Vash-

Yea sorry guys...

I'd say $400 is fair. Great shape, painted, and shipped...less than the price of just the hood new unpainted.

Ohh yes, and PayPal is preferred :)

Vash-

Are you fuggin kidding me? $400 is a steal for that hood!

:(

I'm totally diggin' the Bomex nose!!! I had the one with the fog light holes on my 96.....loved it.

350 shipped

Will take it for 355 shipped!

You Motherfucker. 360

Now you have done it Loki47....

365

Er I mean i rescind my offer. And Mod abuse is unheard of on this forum. ;)

That sounds better

Thanks man! I'm guessin your...droptopdrifter? :) I felt the Bomex front set me apart from everyone else.

I've had a couple offers on the hood, but nothing real serious. The new one will be here the beginning of next week. If by then I don't have a sale here...I will go to ebay. Thanks for the interest guys! :bowrofl:

Vash-

damn you for having the color of a fictional group of small creatures who live somewhere in the woods.

You forgot to mention the best color on a miata! Anyways, the blue would go so good with any other color, just because its the best. Like a red miata with a smurf hood!! :giggle:

Vash-

What do you think shipping would run for it out to 98226?

Ill pay the 400- if shipping isnt horrendous-

I have a question. The hood extracts, meaning it helps suck the air through the radiator and the IC, right?

So, why is your intake right in that hot airstream? Wouldn't it be better to turn that elbow around 180* to get the cooler air coming in from the TSI's?

this would look great on my black car with the laguna bumper!

Currently my intake is a little different, but not much better. I plan on routing the intake differently once all the new parts arrive. I just got a K&N filter, a box of aluminum piping, couplers, clamps, etc. I've been taking notes on everyones setup to try and make something of my own. IC and intake wise, hopefully sometime this month.

Vash-

I just did an estimate shipping to 98226 through UPS and it seemed a bit high @ $160. USPS said the dimensions were invalid. I would have a better idea of the shipping once my new hood arrives and i can go off that. I would think around $100-$120 seems about right.

Vash-

That makes more sense. I just thought it looked a little odd, and wondered if I was missing something.

What about Greyhound?? They usually ship body panels for not a bad price, done several body kits for people that way.

What about the pins?

What new hood are you getting?

Yea, I'm gonna shop around a bit for quotes tomorrow.

What ever the buyer wants. They can come with or I'll remove the plates.

The CF gilled Autokonexion hood.

Vash-

What did you use to secure that screen to the openings?

Uhmmmmm wow i think i just got a stiffy, What did that hood run you?? I think i may take that offer back and join you in getting that extraction hood instead.

It was kinda pricey...$2500 with shipping. :hs:

Vash-

No offense, but If I remember correctly it cost 3 bills and change for the CF verison of that hood.

Non taken....it was a joke. I was trying not to advertise for another hood when trying to sell mine. *sigh :bang:

Vash-

Last call for alcohol!! :yippee:

New hood should be here Monday or Tuesday. So this will be coming off the car then as well. Just want to give any forum members a shot before it goes on ebay. Thanks again for the interest guys!

Vash-

If anyone is interested...I put it on ebay tonight. :)

Vash-

Man I so would've snagged this from you if I had the $$ :(

The guy that bid $400 on ebay asked me to stop the auction now for $500 including shipping, basically his bid. I told him come on man, not even 24hours and the minimum I'd except? If he wins it at the end, whatever $400 is fine. But I know damn well it'll go up. Ebay is the shit! :)

Vash-

good luck Vash .
guys are crazy if they think this hood is cheap . have you tried posting about it on m.net .

this hood was $800 new for the carbon version , w/out shipping.
not to mention its pretty fricken rare.

good luck on the sale . you'll get your money for it

I'm sure if I post over at m.net, they will see a ebay link and it'll be closed in a couple hours if not minutes. It would be nice to get the extra views from it though. :)

Vash-

Hood has 10 hours left on Ebay! I'm right at the reserve price of $400. If anyone else is interested this is the last chance.

This is also my last post about it. :)

I'm gonna try posting about it on m.net. :bowrofl: Should make it at least 5 minutes I hope!!

Vash-

any clue how much shipping on an item that size would be to detroit area michigan. 48154?
