I like it...too curvy though...it's a boxy car, the hood should have fine lines. like the top lines curve..

ahhh.... its not on my car... that is a fantastic (read:5 min) job on photoshop. I kinda think the lines go well with eachother... just kinda wish they had provisions for the iroc louvers.

I agree that it is alittle too curvy for my taste, but it's cool because I don't see much of them

all and all nice job
