Well here it is...the new hood!!

Like the title says..I had this photochopped before I purchased to see how I would like it..what do you think? Its made by VIS...I can get it for 780 shipped to my door. I still like the TS Hood but I always wanted the Amuse Creation that the did for the 350z...this is sorta the route I was thinking...post up your comments. I wish the 2 back vents were either taken off or the

Actual hood made and installed: Fitment looks dead on!



Actual hood chopped on my car:



Hood photoshopped with the back vents pulled closer:



This is a photochop with the 2 back vents removed.



The route I was thinking.....all painted with the vent areas painted gloss black..This has the 2 vents removed as well.



One of the photochop masters on the board...he created this one.



More info regarding the hood:

I've always felt that these wild hoods look best only on cars with more aggressive kits or to go along with various other wild body enhancements.

I'd say stick with the stock hood. The car looks great now and really doens't need much else on the outside. I think your car looks great as-is.

10-4......alot of the reason I have been looking is because I was going to have my hood repainted because of rock chips and it has a couple of dents from the hail storm we had..

I was thinking the same thing bro. I love this hood though, especially with the two rear vents removed. Can you have it made that way? And can I have someone photochop my ride with this hood, I would seriously consider gettin one if I could see what it would look like...

Kenny did great work on the PS leading up to this; he does some majic work. I really like the second to last pic with the last upper vents deleted.

you have gone with a clean, not so agressive look. I love the hood but it definitely doesn't go with the rest of your body mods. However, if you like it, get it. It looks great from the chop.

I just got done looking at is closely....to me it looks like the hood doesnt flow because everything goes to a point where as the whole body shape of the G35 is curve along with the front bumper..IMO I probably wont go forwared it now after looking really into the differences.
