Couldn't find a JDM hood so i did this.....

[Hondasi88]

I just got very excited to see pictures of my car " even though it will be for sale soon". But im glad I went with evo 3 vents instead of paying 500 plus for a dented up JDM hood "no offense to those that went with one".


btw anyone near DE check out SP Dips & Performance,or [email protected]

i have one of those dented hoods, there not bad. i do however really like what you have done.

 

[Steve885]

Where'd u get the vents??

 

[jnava]

That is a sexy beast. I'm not sure if it's the lighting. You know what, it probably is the lighting. It looks great. GLWS

no offense to the JDM hood crew! I really had some bad interactions with some of the sellers on ebay about getting hood shipped here.

btw, I found the hood vents on www.evo123.net

Why did you even go through the trouble of doing that if your just gonna sell it anyways?

 

[Hondasi88]

It's something i wanted to do for a long time to be honest. Also, I wanted something nice to look at everyday before I leave for work if that makes sense.

side question: is our usdm VR4 hood the same as any old Galant hood? looking to pick up an unrusted one later on.

Is there a side vent on the hood? Looks like there is something on the pass side.

 

[mcbride89]

That looks gorgeous!!!

 

[blacksheep]

I was about to ask the same: Like a NACA duct on the hood passenger side or something?

 

[dc_style]

There may be a slight difference, depending on trim/year. There may not be an area up front that depresses the hood pin switch for the alarm system. The hood on 555/1000 has either been replaced with something aftermarket, or one from another galant that doesn't have this "feature". If you don't use the factory alarm, then it wouldn't be an issue anyway. Other than that, mine looks identical to any other 6g hood. The only reason i know this, is because i wanted to use the factory hoodpin switch for my Clifford alarm. Couldn't do it.

Looks good! I to was looking to do evo3 vents, but came across a pair of evoX hood vents! Same design, just wider and not as tall. Will share pics when mines get put on sometime soon. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Looks good! I take it you found a shop that would install them for a ok deal?

 

[Hondasi88]

great deal actually!!! I'll share more information once i get my car back.

 

[Hittman]

It looks pretty legit to me, I'd like to see how the rest of the car came out too.
