Cant decide whether or not I like the idea. What do you guys think? Not saying I was going to attempt this, just totally bored this Saturday night.

That would be a sweet setup for putting dual intercoolers for a twin-turbo setup!

You should post that in the forced induction section............

Photoshop a WS6 hood on that and some blackbird stripes, the some CCW's and that thing is sex on wheels. I am suprised at how nice that actually looks. It definately would be bad *** to have twin intercoolers behind those.

I kinda like that as well. Although, only question about it would be about the turn signals. But that would acually be something I would buy if I could. Should try doing a photoshop with a Firehawk or Raptor hood as well.

You know it kinda reminds me of the intake scoops for fighter jets. It took forever to figure out what you did at first. But it looks good. However, when came down to it, I wouldn't have the ***** to cut it up, unless I had a spare laying around...

All these replies and only one negative. Had I the time and money I would definately cut up my bumper for some fiberglass action. Too bad you dont get paid to be in college.

Pewter is a bitch to chop with... anyway, after doing this I decided that I seriously need a WS6 hood and some better rims
