+1.

I like the mecham hood, but something about the nostril openings doesn't look right. IMO the stock ws6 hood looks meaner. Also, I thought I remember hearing people on here say that the fitmet was terrible on the mecham hoods.

Thats a pretty accurate post. I would love to combine the 2 hoods. Keep the ws6 nostrils and just add the mecham heat extractors. Once of these days I'm going to convince someone to build it for me.

Closest hood if you mixed the two would be VFN's WSQ hood. Check out QCon's car, pretty sick!

Both hoods look great.

The thing about the Mecham is on some cars it looks awesome and some it looks bad.

Its all based on the theme of the car and if the complexity of the hood can flow with the car.

On your car, I think the smoothie q or superhawk would fit perfectly.

I love the mecham parts. They are super rare and nice to actually see.

I was excited about the Q hoods at first but I dont think they would do it for me. I LOVE Q cons car but there is no way I could pull that hood off with my car.

I went the other way. I like the mecham style nostrils but do not really like the heat extractors.

Keep ws6 hood or Mecham hood?-lowfront.jpg
