Default Pics of car with no wiper cowl?
Will someone put up some pics of a 4th gen with no wiper cowl or wipers, and a stock hood or something similar? Is there a noticeable gap between the hood and the windshield?

If you trim it to the glass, or 3/4 of metal left, there is a 3" GAP.... I dont have a stock hood or I would post pics....

Is it a pretty noticable gap or does it stand out much? What about with a VFN Sonoco bolt-on hood?

Yes it stands out and you'll need a extended hood

Only way to go without an extended hood, is to re attach the plastic some how.... Ive seen it done, and it looks decent...
