Guys how can we get someone to create some replica front lip and side skirts to match the ones on the new Hennessey? They look amazing and I think people here would pay for them.
What do you guys think?
A lip is nice, but a front clip that can house a massive 3-core, now thats something would actually help push the untunable and heavy WK2s into the 9s.
That's definitely a good look. Keep in mind, that suspension PS is probably much lower than any aftermarket setup will allow a Jeep to go. Overall, it's a very impressive look.
Well, the carbon fiber hood on my KR started out with a price of $18k or $19k and then came down to less than $10k a year later and I think they are now available from Shelby for KR owners for about $4k and replicas can be found for less than $1k. I would expect that at initial start up the price of the ground effects would be fairly high (depending on what they are made out of) to cover the development costs, but should come down over time as those costs are amortized and as competitors enter the market with similar options. I would be very interested in a set at a reasonable cost (reasonable has its own definition for each buyer, though).
I am guessing that a real carbon spoiler would be less than $2k. We may offer one in fiberglass that could be painted and it would be far less expensive. We may have a prototype to show you guys in the near future.
FYI, our twin turbo systems include a complete MoTec engine management system and thus the high cost. Our HPE800 system comes with a warranty. More power is available but without warranty.
I'm traveling now but will sign back up as a sponsor next week. Thanks mods.
Wondering.....A) Where that sponsorship went?
B) MoTec systems made out of titanium and gold?
C) For $235k, does it come with a stock GT-R for when your WK2 breaks?
D) Does the non-warrantied WK2 come with a Flux Capacitor?
Thanks Mr. Spackler for clearing this up!
A real CF front spoiler/splitter for less than 2k? That almost sounds too good to be true but surely keep us posted. I personally don't want fiberglass if cf would be possible
Wondering why something like this hasnt been produced yet. Really makes the WK2 look agressive like the WK1...Really its weird how there really havent been any mods for the WK2.
Already been made, looks bad ass! as for mods. Its a brand new vehicle. first year in production, its gonna take a while. Just like when the WK1 came out. How long did it take to get a hood option!? I'm sure by 2014 we'll have all kinds of stuff.
Black ops already made a really cool front fascia for the wk2 (not sure if he has put it into production yet). From my conversations with Chad I don't think he'll be building anything new for the WK1 anytime soon sadly .
Speaking of Hennessey. With the refreshed 2014, I wonder if he'll be releasing a new 1/4 million dollar 12 second Jeep? I wonder if they actually produced any of his 2012 designs?
I'm sure someone will develop one in time. I doubt you are going to want to pay for one from Hennessy as it will be really expensive due to the fact that it will be made from the horn of a unicorn!
