    i think it looks good on a car with a cf hood and some minor body things (front lip, rear lip, not ricey stuff) but on a stock looking car it looks like crap...thats just my opinion

    i like your wheels
    that looks like stacked coin
    some ricer is gonna be grabbing on that...LOL

    id think this might help a little with airflow over the front glass
    but the vacuum effect might negate it
    i remember raising hoods in a class about aerodynamics made a huge difference...
    but they weren't accounting for the vacuum effect and also they were raised ALOT more...
    like 5inches more...haha

    did it on Suki cause the hood would hit my strut bar due to the drop vent :)

    But i used the nilon spacers from a hardware store... i didn't use the metal ones everyone else uses.... Nilon is more friendly on the hood.. :)
