I love this hood too but will not pursue it unless I am no longer OEM.![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

guys seeing that you have seen my car as it currently exsists please help me to decide if i wanna do this or not (rick sorry for using your pic)
do you guys think i should go with the veilside vented hood and matching grill to give the black a even more aggressive look or stay oem

u can use those pics anytime... i think you should go for te hood expecially if that SC works out... im plannin on doing some type of FI this summer.. i jsut got a deal on the hood from Jeff (tturrbopimp) and couldnt turn it down.. and beleive me when i tell you i love it... you will see it in FEB at the meet... the DRAWBACK on the hood is ... it is not as heavy and strudy as OEM... there is no slamming the hood.. and you cant use the stock hood struts.. which is a bummer. BUT looks very aggresive.. which i like alot.. plus i dont open the hood much except when im at shows.. and even then i now have small about 15" hood prop so you can see the hood.. but since i alrady have this mod i would love to see what other people think abotu it... i was actaully going to start a new thread.. with pics of my cart with the stock hood and L tuned grill compared to the Veilside and see what people liked more.. if you want ill post 2 pics for ou ... a before and after sort of pics.

thanks rick , sure post them up in fact post a few extras in here so dune could see them and maybe do a shoot of yours for that mag.. i told him yours would be more of their looking for
i love the hood but doing without hood shocks bothers me for i am constantly (every week) going under the hood just to make sure everything is clean and no strange noises or anything.. do you think a good custom body shop could do a custom job and get some lightweight hood shocks to work
