i wouldn't let her fat butt get back on that hood again, unless you want to buy a new one to replace your cracked one.

well the hood is alredady cracked...first month had it put it on my friends car for nopi in atl last year and he decided to run in the back of someone........he paid fora new one withcash and instead of getting a new one i had to pay some bills.....its not horible just cracked it a lil and broke the hood latch off....so i just got hood pins.....

and im not saying that its slow im just saying i wasnt going for a full out drag civic...just an everyday car that i can run up on some vette's with

Nice hatch! I say get a CTR grille and lose the CTR badge, then it'll be perfect

Keep the racing on the track, but I like the car a lot. IMO an OEM CF hood would look better but the car is clean and I think the hood works.
