Your front end REALLY needs a chin spoiler/slitter.
That is a great hood but it makes the car have more bulk/muscle look.
When that happens and you don't have a splitter on the bottom of the car, it
tends to look skinny and unbalanced compared to the rest.
This makes the car look unfinished as well.

You REALLY need that chin spoiler/splitter.
It will make it look balanced and MUCH more aggressive, which is what that
hood does, hence making the rest of the front match, and look nice and finished as
a whole theme.

Great pics and nice car!

Looks good my man but I gotta agree with Blacksmoke. With the hood pins and agressive looking hood what mods are you running???

Well I only have that hood because my car got destroyed by hail damage and I wanted that one in the future so...as far as mods cai/bama 91 shorty headers and this month getting the 4.10 gears and the true duals.within the next year I plan on getting it xcharged provided I don't have to spend my savings for that on something else.

Nice pics and sweet looking hood. Is it my eyes or is the stripe gap different on the hood then on the roof. Pic must be playing tricks on my eyes because the gap looks bigger on the hood and smaller on the roof.

Don't bother with a chin spoiler. Check out the GT/CS front bumper when you get the chance. I bet it would look awesome with that hood!

Looks great dude. Love that hood. Black chin spoiler would definately add to the aggressive look.

Looks good! I definitely agree with the chin spoiler suggestions though, it should be your next addition!

your eyes are not playing tricks it is because that hood is a B**** to stripe any closer.I was debating on restriping the rest but I kind of like it like that.
