Would be cooler if it was stock looking.. and with a proper hood that can close.

He needs tires that FIT THE WHEELS....Instead of the narrow ones he has on the rear that make the edge of the wheels look like pizza cutters....
He needs WHEELS THAT FIT IN THE WHEEL WELL....OR he needs to roll the quarters out a bit more...
He needs to have a custom hood made for the clearance issues/heat issues he is obviously fighting by having the hood like that.

Those were the first two things I noticed. He put all that work into that car and thinks its "Complete". I for sure would of put some sort of cowl hood on to help clearance issues. Same goes with the wheel/tires combo he chose. And maybe get the dash together the rest of the way? :dontknow:

That's part of their 'style' in the import scene. There's no cheaper way to get a cowl hood than to re-adjust the factory mounting points to their max on the hinges (or buy extensions like he has). I don't personally get the appeal it seems to bring that crowd.

there are not clean cowl hoods for imports, so would you rather spend $600 on an ugly crap hood, or $5 for an ugly stock hood? it's not a style thing, it's a function for lack of better options thing. i've never seen one that extreame but i can see there being heat/clearence issues when putting more that twice the motor into a tiny engine bay.

Those were my two complaints that struck me right away. Hood looks like crap half opened. And the tires need to be wider to actually put that power down! Dude is totally a ricer though. Can't shift for crap and constantly plays with his shifter. If you're gonna get on it, then get on it. Don't pussyfoot it and get in & out of the throttle. While I respect the swap a few items concerned me. 1) Every time he smoked the tires the interior filled with smoke. So I am guessing the swap was not very well done with a fully sealed floor to keep smoke & fumes out of the cabin. That is just a little dangerous to the driver. And 2) Gas tank fill buried in the trunk. It's not that hard to run a tube up to the integra gas opening so you can actually use it normally. Unless he smoothed that over. But it still looked like a pain to fill and can't be fun in the car if you drip any during the fill.
