QUOTE (rickstast @ Jan 21, 2009 - 9:03 PM)  You dont have a GT4, so dont put a gt4 hood on it. If you really want bonnet vents dop some thing origional, but definately not that. Absolutely - I wonder sometimes why people go to the expense of doing that as it's not just changing the hood that's required to do a proper job. If it were me, I'd save up and buy a GT4 instead  -------------------- Has your car ever been on T.V? Mine was used in the opening sequences here - note the clear turns and front LED's

Some of us don't have the luxury of buying a GT4 - availability and money is an issue, so we here in the USA do our best to admire the GT4

It therefore does now make sense

That tacked on scoop is the definition of "ricer." It looks absolutely horrible! Why would anyone even consider doing that too their car? Why don't you go add on some tacky 5 foot aluminum wing and paint the hubcaps bright green? Of course its your car, so if you like it, put it on. This is my opinion.

Go with what you feel. If you know you are going to like it no matter what others say then do it. But if you seriously want our opinions, most of us are going to say "No", simply for the fact that it stands out too much. Most of us like to either play it safe, or have grown into the acquired taste of pure "JDM", which means the car is going to have that "Stock" look. Also, it doesn't really flow well with the car, but I am sure if you truly wanted it on there, you could do a color scheme to make it all look well.
There's my answer. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

personally i think it could work.
with some time and thought, maybe some bondo rather than bolting it on there.  but i like how its placed, very unique.
