Very sharp. The whole car looks nice. Now you need to change your sig pic (as do I).
looks great , dont put the ram air hood on , it looks good the way it is now, if you wanted to spend money you could get lowering spring instead of the hood. i love how the power bulge hood looks.
me too, i am sending back the hood any way because it didnt fit and the hood spring goes on the wrong side. so i am leaning toward the fireglass formula hood again even though the back part of the buldge is missing.
i have a eibach pro-kit and a eibach drag launch kit. just need to put one of them on. i think the drag springs would be better.
to get the car lowered i was thinking of just taking the isolators out.

thanks for the compliments.
yes they are indeed 17x9.5 inch rims. with 275/40/17 rubber.
anyone think the eibach drag launch kit with no rubber isolators would look nice? i think i may do that very soon and see what happens.

I take it that those pics are outside of your house? If so, why isn't your car parked in place of that mustang, shame on you! lol, j/k Very nice ride...good job.
yeah the hood didnt fit to well i tried moving the fenders around and hood mounts and nothing seemed to work right.
plus in this pic you can see the spring is on the complete wrong side on the hood.
i bought in through thirdgen resource from ascd
anyway i want to use the pro-kit but i am looking for some better 60 foot times and i think the drag launch kit is for me, i bought the pro-kit before i thought about it. so i am going to try using the drag kit with no rubber isolators. and see how it looks. i need some time to get them in.

IMO, I love 'birds that ride high. For whatever reason it is..I just don't like dropped or slammed birds.
Those wheels man... :hail: :hail: They make your car look 2 seconds faster
Looks amazing, I wish I could pull those wheels off on my Vert.

Looks good.:hail: Did the spacers make the fronts fit fine or did you have to grind a bit of the tie rod down like some of us to keep the rim from rubbing?

We people think that your car looks awesome.
A pair of 91-92 GTA Tail lights would look sweet on that thing.
Wanna a do some kind of swap with the RA1 hood?

89Z28: i have to park on the stupid street most of the time
but its not bad, just need to walk further to get to the car 
Justins86bird: no grinding needed
L98torque: not really, thunder racing has them and slp of coarse sells them.
Zepher: i think i want to just return the hood back to thirdgen resource so i can most of my money back, i know the 91 - 92 taillights would look good.
BORLAZ06: i think i am going to put my eibach drag springs on first to see if it lowers the car a tad, but i think i will still need to test my pro-kit i have in my garage also and see how that looks.
everyone thanks for the awesome remarks :hail:
took an engine shot also.

I think those wheels look like ***, you need to give them to me.
j/k, your car looks sooo good with the Firehawk rims, I love it!
I also agree with the others, don't put the ram air hood. If you do decide to put a hood, a 2" or 2.5" cowl hood would look tuff, IMHO.

Just please don't ruin that car with a Ram Air hood. The power bulge hood looks so perfect on it. Oh, and to make it perfect you need to polish your taillights.
