lexan hood

[cowsareholy]

anyone ever tried to or thought about making a seethru lexan or similar material hood to show off the motor? i think it would be a kinda cool idea

yup...ive seen them so bad where they look as if there going to jump out at you

however that would be a good idea for a show car

before I got my c/f hood the front mount on my ATX came unbolted resulting in the motor hopping up to bend the hood.

Maybe just a small polycarbonate window in the center of the hood?

i guess my bad motor mount isnt all that bad my intake doesnt even rub the under hood mat. not a bad idea to have just a window it would look pretty neat

Someone that made a Gen 1 wagon SHO a few years ago cut a window in his hood. Maybe someone has a pic or 2.

Sheesh, now I want to put a window in the extra hood I have lying around. Only thing is that it is a plus hood, so I probably won't.

my old 91 plus, I cut a hole over the intake, and had a peice fabricated to fit the hole. Then had the hood and front quarters airbrushed and in the process coverd up the seam created by the 'window'. Polish your intake and add a few neon lights and yea, its pretty sexy. Too bad the econoline van that pulled out in front of me and the semi thought it looked nice too. its a good thing i was knocked unconsious for a few minuites, or i probally would have went to jail for assult, after i finished kickin his stupid ass. Bent up 2 of my Eneki 17" chrome 'x-roads' , I hit him that hard. 60mph + econoline @ 30mph headon = Paycheck from insurance company :cry: anyway...

yea a window is '****'
