Raw polished hood - cool or meh

[D3R1K]

If you can keep the hood looking like that, I definitely like it more than that whole rust fad..

What about some woodgrain vinyl?

My homie did that on his EG...Shits pretty dope!

[POOPTOOTH]

There was a guy who did that woodgrain vinyl hood to vbp ep a while back. It was certainly different! Although that last pic of the EVO is sex! I'd go for that look anyday.

to this day i contemplate whether to do it on my vbp because of him

I think a polished nickle plating would look cool

brushed nickle.

pretty cool! i like the rest of your car. should get it plated to match your wheels (although you would probably blind everyone on the road)

[02TWSI]

are those silver or polished slips?....and um, that's a big negative on the polished hood.

[vtecDave]

my bud at works S2k with a polished hood. He worked on that thing till he got fed up and took it to a shop to complete. he had it pretty far but getting a good polish was a real bear.



id say if you like the look don't stop. keep going till you get all the lines/swirls out. at least with our cars you don't have to worry about the sun reflecting off and blinding you.

[vtecDave]

btw... your car looks tuff! nice stance.

S2k with that hood looks awesome
