Default check out my new show mod

hey guys, this is a work in progress i just thought about after seeing the cover of the new 5.0 magazine... just a show mod but i think i gained about 15 hp from it so far... once it's finished up and i drill a little hole through the bottom of the hood and run the wires to the battery with a switch i should gain 5 more hp... got them from autozone.... what do you guys think...

lol, it might be illegal to drive with bright red LED (?) lights on the hood.


Looks alright IMO.

I agree you should tone it down a bit.. And I recommend cold cathode lights. They can be sound activated so they would pulse when you rev your engine. They Also are 1 long light and will look much cleaner.

I hope that is only for shows. Here in NJ and many other states that is a quick ticket for sure. Remember red is considered a "take down" color as is blue in some other states. I know for a fact because when I had my Dakota Pickup I had blue clearance lights on my running boards. They were only in the center as I had a amber one on the front and red one towards the rear and was pulled over in 3 towns and issued a ticket for "Improper Reflectors" in each one. Just a little FYI for you.
