More agressive front end

[SeanMc]

clear corners ,billet grills and it only bing a couple inches off the ground made mine look a little more aggressive

I like it, it's different. I'd just lose the SVT symbol since the SHO has nothing to do with SVT.

My question is, if you're trying to make that car look better why not paint the actual car instead of a bumper that doesn't fit correctly? Looks like you have some horrible paint on there. And get rid of that monster truck wheel gap.

Like I said temporary bumper bought it cheap to get general idea of look and as far as the wheel gap and paint go I want to see how the car sits with side skirts and correct bumper with the front spoiler then I'll lower it and the whole thing will be painted at one time similar to the blue on a mazda 3

you know since my front tires sit perfectly with my front end and my rear looks like its in a little like i notice on all gen 2's i wonder if setting the rear tires out would look good and if it might help handling any?
i think a good idea for a more agressive front end might be a normal taurus GL hood with the lines in the hood like i got i think it looks meaner.

I've always liked the front fascia's of SVT contours...maybe something that combines these two area's in general



The stock upper part of the fascia

Lower grill/foglight treatment of CSVT

= ?

I dunno, I may try a photoshop later if I get bored enough...it may come out looking like complete ass.

Custom HID's with clear headlight covers, black Yamaha badge, flat black slicers, and a blower sticking out the hood. Also, the boost gauge mounted to the hood. Justin's grille is inspiring. Very cool and different.

Someone mentioned a SLO hood. I don't think a SLO hood is tall enough to fit over the stock SHO intake. I think that's partly why they used a sable hood (at least on Gen I's).

Also, I did this widebody concept drawing a few years back:

How in the **** do you pass tech with that thing?????

While I was living in NC last yr. a guy in my Apt Complex had a red 92 with Gen II SLO Hood

the SLO hood fits because i have it on my SHO right now

Oh well, who needs looks when you have SOUND

Can anyone post a pic of their removed fishtanks?? Anyone tried painting them, or would that look ***?? I can't picture it in my head for some reason...

Actually looks really good - best pic I have of one that has it done -

 

[Corby]

Definately looks better than stock. I was thinking the color of the car or black, or whatever colors you have alternating might look good.

 

[Geek SHO]

I believe Josh Tiexera's blue missile has the fishtanks removed. I think he was strapping a camera or two in there, last I saw (the 04 convention). It looked a little odd.

This is the best way to get a Gen 1 looking more agressive in the front end. Add a police grill!

Lowering the car really helps the look though.

 

[Corby]

That does look pretty sharp, do they even make those for a 2nd gen? If anyone has more pics to post of any fishtank mod would be cool too!!

 

[CerberuS]

Youd need a full gen2 bumper cover "police"

Front bumper goes all up to the hood.

 

[SuperHO]

they made a police style front end for the gen 2????? Someone cough up a pic of this before I attack the front of my car with a dremel!!!

Err, I don't believe the Police versions of the SLO had vastly unique bumpers? Even if they did...they were still made for SLO headlights and the such.

I say, hack away!

The Police versions, and SLO's had the same front ends. Only the Gen I came with a different style grill I believe.
