new hood
 

what do you guys think?

looks good cutie! is that the only pic you took?

nope, but that's the best one, here are some more...







this one is just showing the gap that i need to fill:


next thing to be done: badgeless grille...

question: when i do the grille, should i get mesh put on it, or leave it off?

leave it off

Bout time you got that hood.

Looks good.

Looks sweet, I wanna order my cf hood but no $$.

dont' leave it off, cause i left my grille off and my bumper had extra flex in it casue of it, and cracked at teh lower points of the headlights. looks nasty... say hello to mister Mugen front bumper :) w00t!

How about keep the stock hood?

ok.. I think he means the grille part not the actual mold.

actually, dont leave it out, you should get some mesh and paint it black.. theres nothing i hate more than a grille that really stands out.

ugly as ****.

but if i got mesh and painted it black, it would stand out just as much as if i just didn't put mesh in at all... the point is, it WOULDN"T stand out, cuz i have a black car.

Er?

Take a look at Slow_EJ6's hatchback and you'll know what I'm talking about. You can see its there, but it doesnt detract from the face of his ride.

The thing that pisses me off is mesh thats too silverish or painted some absurd color (that contrasts the car's paint job).. It should be there, but it shouldnt be detracting from the flow of the car.

cut all that shiet out...put nothing back in...thats my opinion...but thats because thats what i did

I had mesh...I hated it...Im happier w/ nothin in there at all:yes:

do you have a factory bumper, pdiggs?

^yea he does.

damn, his car is in really good shape.. congrats, pdiggs, keep it up! my bumper looks like shiznit, but that's cuz it's original paint.
