Either way, I believe that the majority of the posts in this thread are 'constructive criticism'. IE. "the calipers dont match the car", " the hood is too damn big" etc etc. Unfornately for you, they're comments that you obviously didn't want to hear, but they are "constructive".
I agree the majority are constructive. But some peoples comments are just them being an *******. I like the set up I have, as far as the hood, I get a lot of compliments, some days I like it, some days I don't. I do plan on getting a different one.I did everything on the car the way I wanted, except for the stuff that was already done,(the brakes and the hood).

And if their being an "*******"... who cares man. Just get over it. This is a public website with tens of thousands of active users. You have to expect ********, and you cant change their views. So why try? Instead, ignore them, and move on. No big deal man. At least your cars done up the right way.

I am going to say, Im not a fan of the hood either. But I do think with a wider set of rear wheels/tires, and if it was lowered. It would make the hood "match" the exterior setup better.

Thanks man. I have lowering springs I'm getting from my brother. i want wider rims on the back, but don't have a fender roller and don't want to beat the **** out of my fender wall. I also have some other priorities before I continue with the mods to my car.

I concur, get something that flows with the car. the wheels I like, but the hood and painted calipers need to change. I agree with black calipers if not the same as the car's exterior.

Seriously, i bet that thing adds drag to the car...

Uuummmm... Lose the hood, sorry but the only reason its "one of a kind" is because nobody wld put that gawdy hood on their car. put your stock ws6 hood on. There is no other hood that looks more intimidating coming at you than the stocker. If I saw your your car coming at me it would make me laugh. Not funny laugh either, a how cld that guy be so stupid kinda laugh. Not tryin to be a jerk but come on dude.
