I wanted a powerbuldge hood but just wanted to experiment and see how it would turn out.

Wow. You made that? Looks great. It might be a little too aggressive w/o the appropriate mods (rims, lowered, etc), but that's sweet!

I like the bulge a lot. Not sure about the scoop. Mainly because I don't see it being functional. But the overall work looks amazing and it does look pretty cool.

Agree with Ryan completely

In general, I don't like non-functional scoops and such.
So, my advice is: don't do it.
It's not a Civic-ish car.

So....power buldge of any type would be a no for Washy.

Yeah - unless something is under the hood that requires the bulge, no for me.

There's nothing wrong with a power bulge IMO

I like the bulge... Scoop looks too srt neon IMO.... Maybe a bulge into a traditional cowl type hood?

M3 bulge....Yes. Scoops? not at all.

This is what I think.

Otherwise, if you made that, good job!

Yeah, I thought it was a bit honda-ish but now I think it looks pretty good! =D

If you pipe fresh cold air off of it into your motor, awesome. If not.....meh.

Above all I'm impressed with the workmanship. Can we get some more detailed shots, up close, inside the hood?

A+ for workmanship.

F for functionality :(

damn, i thought it was photoshopped at first, but after a closer look, the ripples in the reflections are legit.

i will echo most others so far: love the bulge, the scoop not so much.
