Hoods

Postby redkysolarase » Tue Apr 27, 2004 3:51 pm

Ok I tried searching for this but nothing came up. I want a custom hood for my car but I don't want just a carbon fiber hood. I want something with like a cowl induction or hood scoop or something like that. I guess it's where my old camaro had a cowl on it and I miss that really agressive look. Does anyone make one for our cars or would I just have to have someone customize mine?

Youd have to have it completely custom...there are only CF hoods for our car if i am not mistaken. I know there is one red solara with the TRD style vented hood (like on the Supras) and it looked incredible.

Yea this dude is selling his baby now!!! Get that. Damn it really is sick . . . you guys should see it in person. The turbo set up and front mount is coo. The hood is custom as well . . . he used the stock hood and cut out the vents to make it like the TRD hood. Sick
peace out.

I think this would look retarded, but they sell fake stickon hood scoops if you want to go the cheap route.

But Greg's is a real cowl induction, i believe.
If you do it right it wouldn't look tacky.
