I used to dislike the cobra r bumper. But i've really grown to love it on certain cars. I'd put the cobra r back on, and get a cobra r hood or 2.5" cowl. I think cobra r front bumper + cowl hood and a steeda wing scream track car. I love the all business auto x look of that setup.

one bit of advice I always give people is when modding a car, have a plan and know what you want the end result to be. This way you don't go in circles replacing parts over and over. The OP probably could have planned a little better or maybe his taste has changed, either way it's his car and ultimately his money so there is no need to get all worked up over it. I personally think in the end the car will look much better than it did before but he obviously at one time like the way his car looked before (b/c he wouldn't have wither bought it like that, or changed it to that), so he probably don't look at it as a waste of money.

Normally, I'd agree with you and say go for suspension and power, but IMO that hood's gotta go.

On the few cars I've seen a 4" cowl, I thought they looked great. I know HO Fibertrends has a pic of theirs on a car on their site.

if you kept the cobra R front bumper, you coulda went with a cobra R hood as well.. that woulda looked MEAN...

if you want to do something crazy, F*** the stripes, blackout the roof and get a new hood... BALLR (or maybe im just saying this to you bc thats what i want to do but i dont have the ***** to do it)

front bumper looks good, hood needs to go. you can find somebody who is willing to buy it and make some of your money back
