hood spacers?

were does a guy get these from lol i kinda want to do this to my car

seriously? lol

hell yes so i looked them up and there just like a washer so ill just go to bolt supply and get some washers and longer bolts . cheaper if i dont like it lol

yes, its just washers with longer metric bolts. Its only beneficial in some cars. If you start screwing around with high-pressure and low-pressure zones, its not good.

I think it looks neat on turbo cars that can acutally use it. But on non-turbo cars, it might just look cheap. I say try it. You're only goign ot be out like $5 if it doesn't look good.

hmm. i think i would have to see it in person before i decide if i like the look or not.

thats the plan if it looks ok cool if it looks dumb then im out a 5

kinda just looks like you have horrible hood fitment
get spacers for your trunk too so it looks even
and take out some bolts around the bumper/fender area so they look like there about to fall off

ahahaha. yes, layne strikes again
I agree though, you're car doesn't have that rattish/badass look that goes with that hood fitment. You need some serious offset to pull that off with your stock rims

Since it was cool to be JDM.

rusted hoods are a VW thing though, and that group is unique as fuck. They have just run out of ideas, and its comming full circle.

Would this be beneficial in any way of letting heat disburse?

i think thats the hole poin t behind it . i just think it looks good on some cars

Hmm, When im ready to put my hood on I am going to see how it looks.

my hood came like this when i bought it.

the theory behind it is when you are driving, a low pressure zone is created in front of the windshield behind the hood. air is actually being SUCKED IN while you drive

at idle the air is moving outwards

dont believe me? use tape and dangle them behind your spaced up hood. they move in while you drive.

this is PERFECT and i enjoyed it, if you dont mind your hood looking broken

so it basically works like a cowl induction hood?

Thanks for this information.
I wasn't aware that it actually sucked in at high speeds.

heres some pictures for reference, my car was so different back then. the bumper is actually red

It gives it a rather aggressive look.

I like what you've done with the place.

I didn't know that to be honest, about the low pressure zone. I'm glad you removed it though. I've only seen a few cars that can rock this look.
