There IS a SPOON hood for the RSX, over a G w/o shipping. basicly the diffrence will be quality, weight and most of all name. but the spoon is full CF while the Vis is fiberglass wrapped w/CF

Re: (BlackAk02)

There is no Spoon CF hood for DC5 available.

Yes, I see that takakaira lists a Spoon CF hood for DC5. Also EP3, and even Prelude.

If you don't want to believe me, check http://www.spoon.jp or http://www.spoon-sports.com

You may have seen pictures of Spoon DC5 and EP3 street cars with CF hoods. Those hoods are test pieces only and are not being sold by Spoon.

Bumping an old thread and NFG.

a worker at spoon made about 20 hoods for the dc5 chassis on the side but never went to production. I own one.

That's interesting. Odd that they'd add the Spoon badge, unless you did it?

I really like the Spoon hood prop. :)

Nope, badge came on the hood just like all their hoods, spoilers, oil pans, etc

It's probably a giant wooden spoon for effect.

Interestingly, I have an H22 Spoon header (I think it's the only thing they ever made specifically for that engine; it's the top section that bolts to the factory downpipe), and it has no markings on it.

Re: Whats the big deal SPOON hood

Some gen 1 stuff doesn’t have any spoon markings. For example off the top off my head the gen1 k20 plug cover didn’t have any markings or the gen 1 n1 exhaust. Fakes came out so they added a badge to their n1 now.
