that bird won't match the other designs on the rest of the car plus I only think hood birds look good on 2nd gen and even then it was a touchy subject

I absolutely LOVE the hood birds on 2nd gens. I wish there was a way to make some kind of bird look good on 4th gens but, I haven't seen it yet. Sorry,just my lowly opinion.

Looks like it's done well.

The only bird I've liked is rally birds on T/A hoods, but I might feel that one more if you took out the fire breath.

I think it would look real cool if it had three ports in the hood, where the three big parts of the wings are. It looks alright. Not bad, not great, But im sure youll get some good attention.
