I never stated anyone explicitly said my way or the highway. But in a group buy, it's hard to make things happen if people are too stubborn to consider other ideas.

I also never said you should go with something you hate. It's just hard to get this going when everyone wants only one hood and absolutely no way none of the others.

I have a strong preference for the original WS-6. But I looked at the others, and I really wouldn't mind any of them, since they look way better than a stock hood with some rock chips in it. Doesn't mean I don't have a preference, but being reasonable I don't see much wrong with the others. They're all neat, they're all different... I really fail to see the big deal.

Point is, it seems the lack of people feeling similarly is why we're not being taken seriously by the company and why this probably won't happen. Group buys = consensus. HIGHLY unlikely to happen if everyone is too stubborn to have more than one option they'd be happy with.

I'm don't mean to say those of you who are in it for only one hood are wrong, because you're entitled to your likes and dislikes and that's fine, but when it's a group buy and everyone relies on the other, that might be something you'd want to consider if you even want to have a new hood in the first place.

It's a letdown for everyone else to have nine or ten people and then someone comes by and goes, "oops! I only want this one. Nevermind." And we're back to no-go. Do you really feel THAT strongly about one hood?

If so, then fine, you shouldn't go with something you hate. But can you all at least consider considering a second option? :p

thx milrlyt. Since alot of us want a custom hood the other option would be to send our hoods to turbos custom guy if it does not work with this company. Turbo could you post your guys info so we may contact him or at least send me the info.

Agreed. That style cowl hood would look so nice on my 7th gen SS

Seconded. I hope it isn't too much more expensive to do it alone though.
