Looks awesome! I'll have to pay more attention to when there are meets and hopefully I can see this beauty in person some day.

Quoting JB:
Got any side profile shots of the hood showing its bulge? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsugh.gif



I will take some this weekend once the car is home .

after seeing that hood (on that black car above) in person, I would have to say it's fairly well done in terms of mixing the lines from a Lancer hood onto a Galant hood. It definitely doesn't look out of place, and it's a bit refreshing to see as opposed to the super 'flat' in comparison regular Galant hoods.

I've been dreaming about a hood like that for a long time now but didn't know anyone else actually made one. Looks exactly how I pictured it.

I didn't know the evo3 hood was aluminum though...

The pics really don't show the color really well IMO, looks much brighter in person. Beautiful.

I'd be scared to drive it, what if a Unicorn ran in front of the car and you couldn't dodge it... they can't resist unicorn parts, it's like deer piss when hunting

Car looks absolutely gorgeous!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif

Paint looks great. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rock.gif

A couple things I noticed:

I'm actually not a fan of the hood, but that's just me. I like the vents, but not the bulge.
Plz pull the wheels off and give the wheelwells some fresh semigloss black. You'll notice how bad dirt stands out in there now with such clean paint over the rest of the car.
Do you have all the bolts holding the underside of the rear bumper? It looks a little deformed around the exhaust outlet.

Don't take any offense to my critiques. It's just stuff I notice that can be fixed and I think would make the car just that much better. Except for the hood. I realize that is an opinion thing and you don't wanna change it...much like the lip I have on the front bumper of my car. Some don't like it, some do.

I just ordered the bumper bolts from JNZ tuning 2 days ago.

The rear wheel wells have been painted and the fronts will be done in the next week once I get around to it all on the list of things to do .
