He has glass in the front and has that big bulky hood and stock tires, something just doesn't belong in this picture.

If you go to his cardomain, he has new wheels and bigger tires.

I like it. A little loud for my tastes, but it's something you don't see all day.

I like it...I wish I could do something like that to mine, but I cant because I would mess up the flames.

he did really good work, but it just seems like a hood stuck ontop of a hood...

i would like it, if it weren't on a edge hood to begin with...

he has nice quick-disconnects on his sway-bar, though...

I think you need to do the light tab again...

I think it doesn't look good with that hood on there... My .02

If it were a single scoop I would love it. I'm not a huge fan of double scoops but LOVE single scoops.

Some scoops only look good on the "non-powerdome" hoods.
