CF TII hood on N/A

I'm looking at a CF hood, and just because personal preference, i like the TII hood better. Do you think i would recieve alot of negative comments for this? My whole car is black and i have no gay neon lights, or any other 'ricer' mods. just www.fc3s.org stickers what do you think about putting a hood like this on an n/a? you can see i'm not all stock either, so i really don't consider it "rice".

I would say go with the NA CF hood if your NA. I would not necisarily call it "ricer" to put a TII hood on your NA, but lots of other people do (for some reason I don't know). Though I have heard that the scoop can somehow hurt your performance a little bit, not sure how myself but have heard that. I dunno, do whatever you like best I guess though.

Talking go for it

Go for it. I ran the turbo hood on my SE. of course the only thing SE about it was the 4 lug. I say if you can run with the big dogs then by all means look like them too. besides the na hood is faaaaaaarrrrrr to long looking. the scoop makes it look much better.

go for it, and tell the people who think its rice to shut up, the hood is functional, it will lower the engine temp. so it is useful, not like neon lights, or LED windsheild sprayers on those gay rice hondas you see in town (not saying all hondas are gay), but i say go for it...my $.02
