I don't think it looks bad. Now you just need to get a turbo under the hood so you can back up that look.

I wish I had the money to do an engine swap



And don't hate the wing, I'm now booking round trip flights to anywhere nationwide. Get in on it now while the prices are still cheap

Ugh the wing was 73000 yen not sure what that equates to now and how much it was in us dollars when I bought it, but I'd say it was roughly $700

Oh and to answer the what mods question, I've only got a racing beat cat back, hks intake, and an oil pan baffel. Haven't done much modding cuz it's pretty much been sitting in the garage.

Funny how those bolts thru the hood scoop dont shop up in the red cars pics, lol. Snap a pic of the underside of the hood for me? PM it to me if you could be so kind? Pins or stock latch hold it down?

Yeah the way the designed the hood was kind of stupid. Don't ask me why it's two piece. The shop was hesitant about fiberglassing the center hood scoop in due to the fact that it might end up cracking around the seals and end up looking like ****. I kind of like the look of the bolts though. And there were holes around the vent and hood to mount them that way. They did however design the hood with a latch built in similar to the stock one. I bought hood pins for the car, just didn't put them in.

No one wants to deal with glassing a hood, they were probably more afraid of the bodywork showing up in the future, either in the forms of cracks or waves. It would look nice glassed in though, ship it here and Ill do it for a minimal fee----yeah right- like youll ever take it off the car again, lol

That's cool!

Swap in a TII motor and you would be set.
