well, i did a little different this time, just wanted to show it. still gotta paint the car. don't know if it will be very functional, but i like the way it looks. so what ya think?

 

i'm not one to bash, but ever since i saw your sig i always thought your little scoop looked kinda stupid, even if it was functional. but, i never said anything cuz then i would have felt like a 2nd gen owner teenage punk/louge rat jerk. i think that this hood looks MUCH better than the last, give your baby a new paint job and things will be a-ok! (looks cool, gets my approval )

 

Looks good man a lot better than the old one id say get rid of the yellow too..

 

Only thing Id do before paint is fill the edges around the screens so that the seam is less visible.

Lookin good though. Let us know if your butt-dyno notices a change!

 

looks good, nice and symmetrical, looks pretty square with the lines on the hood

 

i used the hood frame as a guide. and i was thinking of putting something around the edges like the door trim stuff. doesn't look that bad without the mesh, but i'll see.

 

i don't think you will find any differences on the butt-dyno, but maybe reduce some overheating issues if you have any. the mesh looks cool but i would have went with some slotted vents, very viper-ish. or a combo of both, very evo-ish

 

Yeah,

Use some molding and mate it with the mesh and glue it around the metal that way it looks a little bit flusher and you can’t notice the sharp edges anymore.

As for the benefits I can see a cooling side effect to it, it'll help a bunch.

i like it

 

Looking killer man. Nice chioce for the mesh. When I was looking at it Iwas thinkging that your car would look really good in black. Can't wait to see it when it is done.

 

well, i'm glad you all are nice enogh to say you like it. was excpecting to hear something along the line of RICE. but when it's all done it will be different. thats what i'm lookin for. thanks

 

Your car possess the classic lines and coloring that the ricers stole and imitated (poorly). You should be proud of it.

 

RICE = Rotary Internal Combustion Engine. we are all rice here

 

that's sexy... i like it.. not a big fan of the paint job though... but the hood still looks sweet... i want one..
