Thread: i got something you dont have ! (pic heavy)

so everybody check out my latest investment... i love it, would be nice if it was black, but ill get it painted sooner or later. let me just throw a to Shawngtp. got the hood from him, he did awesome work and was great to work with. high quality, good paint, everything was good. if you wanna buy something, buy his stuff lol let me know what you all think! (be as rude as you want i wont b*tch)









(had to throw in the random interior shot, nothing special, just clean haha)

i liked his hood, just get it painted.

what is shawn gunna do with another hood I wonder?

I definitely can't say it looks bad, but I always like the dual scoops to match the grill.

five, im almost positive hes making more, idk what he has on it right now though.
zr1 i thought about the dual scoops and i wanted it but this worked out better for me and not only that but NOBODY has this hood. so i wanted it for that reason too. plus its just looks awesome IMO

that thought passed through my mind, but honestly, how much of a difference will it really make performance wise? plus idk if i wanna take the risk of Fing it up if i were to do it myself

hahaaha that is a very good point, plus i can throw away more money for a nice chrome grille for it haha. next for apperance is either halos or probably figure brushed alunimum grilles. id like to go chrome or maybe black chrome but they're too costly

too make it functional id have to cut a hole in the scoop and the underside of the hood, i cant see that being easy, for basically just a little bit of a apperance upgrade, because its really not aiding performance, at all. plus unless its parked and your looking for it you cant really tell it isnt functional, especially if im driving by you just see the scoop and would assume it is, or i would anyway.

Please make the car fast to match/back up the hood.

The under-hood was about like pulling the pants down on a ken doll and realizing there's nothing there.

that was quite a comparison, and i know and couldnt agree more. i believe whats next will be some speeddaddy headers, maybe a hv3, and maybe rockers. not too sure about the hv3 and rockers but headers i definitley want. besides those 3 what else should i really get to make a n/a move? besides a m90?

Its not fiberglass for one and what would the gains be? MMM not much.


The new hood will be on in two to three week. Stay tuned.

I vote Turbo! Nice looking hood.

Love the Black and Tan combo.

turbo would never happen, theres no way im spending as much money on a turbo as i did for the car, especially when its a daily driver lol its just wouldnt make sense to me.
alkygto, thanks i like the tan on black too i didnt at first but now i love it not as many people have it and it sets it off and has a nice contrast imo.
TCO, not that i really care about this but if i were to do that, it'd actually make it slower because it would act as a parachute and trap all the air making it less aerodynamic. BUT, if there is anyone who has done or can find a write up on how to do it, i might consider it but even then idk. i think its just too much risk for too little reward.

dude that hood is gay as hell.... makes ur car look like sh1t. cant believe u bought that POS.































jk jk... that hood rocks... as i told shawn before functional ram air would have been better. oh yea and u need charcoal interior.

i was just thinking to myself wtf is his problem, then i scrolled down

for all you body work guys, im assuming there's more to it than just cutting a hole in it, so what exactly do you gotta do?

the only way i'd really be interested in gray interior is id its the two tone special edition leather. i LOVE that interior. but i'd want everything to match (rug, console, dash, headliner, etc.) grey seats and everything else tan wouldnt look right

damn i really wish i made mine

would be better if it wass functional
