well when the draglites go on with the 26x10.5-15 M/T ET streets go on the rear and the skinnies go up front along with the eibach pro kit the car should have a sick stance i hope.

About an inch and a half to big IMO. You need some serious mods to back that hood up.

As long as you like it...

Get those wheels on, and some suspension.

Personally I hate it but I'm glad you like it. As mentioned before it just looks waaaaay out of place on a street car.

Not to be rude by MY opinion is why ruin a beautiful car with such an ugly *** hood? If you spent that kind of money why not step up to a raptor or ws6 hood. I know you want to stand out but made fun of? Yikes, not my car.

well before i bought the hood this is what i thought. Hmmm maybe i should get a WS6 hood just like the other 13,456,324 people out there and look the exact same. Or i could get the 4" ram air which not many people have and be different which is what i like to be kinda like taco bell think outside the bun . So now when or wherever i pull up at they know now who it is, where as if i got a regular WS6 hood they would be wondering who it was til i got out of the car. overall i did it to be different and i think it looks badass on the car.

At first I liked the hood, but the more I look at it, the more I realize it's too big for my car. I think i'll just go WS6 instead. No offence, the hood is cool, I just wish it was a 2 or 3 inch cowl instead of 4.
