Hmm... Interesting. The holes are a bit larger than I would have done. I think it would look better if the holes were covered with some black mesh.

So are those holes so you can see what's under the hood before robbing some poor slob of his twins, and you can get a nice big greddy or Hks ?? before you go through all the troubble of disarming your security system....

Happened to one of the socal guys, they couldn't start the car, so they opened the hood too his IC, Intake and whatever could be easily loosened with basic tools...

Be Carefull !

Holy Batmobile Boy Wonder


1. Serious air flow guidance problems.
2. No heat dissapation problems
3. Not a wet weather setup you say?

Nice headlights ---- Not!

Just remember folks, different (in this case) doesn't mean better. Christ, if there were more holes in that damn thing you could use it as a freakin collander.

Definitely not since KS lights have a Black Shroud around the Lights that keeps rain and dirt / debris out of the headlamp assembly, just like the stock FD ones do, but with two round openings...

Or he was not smart enough to put those on...
