What's with the hood? It appears to be misaligned at the rear. It is sitting up too high.

Other than that it looks pretty clean.

Its a alternative to a vented hood.
Instead of a vented hood for heat to escape it goes out of the rear of the hood.

Vented looks better though. People always tell me my hood is open. or try to push it down. or tell me to fix it.

Fitment is the only reason thats holding me back from an aftermarket hood on my FC.

c41250n, you need a rebuild. My engine was rebuilt 30,000 miles ago with a steetport. I think we should trade ours engines, drivetrain, and ECU's. You'll be very pleased with the "retro" feeling of my rotary.

Yeah rebuild. Rebuilt it yourself. It's about as hard as a chicks dick.

Or if your under 100k then take it to a dealership for a free rebuild My car is 83k miles and still very strong.
