I think it's a one-of, and that scoop in the middle isn't functional.

i can always make the hood functional with a drill and saw I just like the look of it, how the hood scoop is wider and center with the 2 other reverse scoops. Keeps the TII look but a little more exotic. I hope they have it in cf or fiberglass.

Yes, you can paint it. I think the new NSX's body is made up of alot of CF.

The "new" NSX? Do you mean a "coming soon" version? I thought all of the ones out now were aluminum.
