Looks great.

Two suggestions though:
1. Lower that pig.
2. Make sure you replace that missing lower fascia below the radiator before you do any high speeds.

It didn't have it when I got it where can I get one? Is the hood going to fly off?

Looks sexy!

I'd have to do some digging to find that part, but from what I've read the hood starts to "billow" at a certain speed.

Looks awesome!

My old car didn't have one and i had that thing up over 100 numerous time with the fastest being 156mph and no issues.

yeah my hood doesn't billow at all

nice color v

mine vibrates like a mf at 120 when i had it off...lol

Nice looking man... Lower it a bit and you're set

are you referring to the plastic shroud that connected from the front bumper to the k member?

Funny...my little facia piece flew off at 150+

Yessir.

MY car was lowered so maybe thats why my hood didnt move.

I'm scared to lower it, I don't want to bottom out on speed bumps.

The issue I had was with that piece missing the inner fender blew out at 150ish. Probably because they all hook in together at the front of the fender liner.

did you replace it? My inner fenders are all chewed up and or missing. Is it worth replacing?

Car looks awesome! love the color!

Lol! My old car didn't have that shroud or fender liners. Weight reduction baby!! Haha

Nope never did and the car has a new owner now. 95% of people never would notice and I'm not sure if it made my hood or car "more unstable" but I'm sure it's not a good idea to make 160mph pull with parts of the car's areodynamics missing...But then I did and the hood never flew off nor did the car come off the road.

BTW seein your V makes me wanna get back in the market LMAO. That thing is SAWWWEET

well here's the front deflector.

Mine was missing all the little parts underneath. It was about 250 for all the parts from the Caddi man.

Really tightened the front bumper up alot.
