i hate the hood raiser thing, makes it look like a horribly repaired wreck with horrid panel fitment, and i never did care for those types of headlights.
looks good. may i ask y the raisers tho? and were did you get them? i'm thinking about them for heat reasons, but i know hondas do it so they can fit the trans swaps.
I dunno if the euro Foci are build like ours, but if you did the hood raiser for heat, you might consider just pulling the weatherstripping on the bottom of your windshield trim. Does a lot for heat soak and keeps the stock lock.
I can't say I like the risers... but I haven't seen that done before, so it's a new thing to me.
well if i was to do long trips on the motorway it keeps the heat down and i dont think it looks too bad. ive had a mixed view loadsa people says it looks like ive had a crash and a few have said it looks ok, ive had people tell me my bonnets open and everything haha. and the bonnet raisers are just a new (longer screw) with bolts on it so it tilts the bonnet open, i have 3 bolts under it atm but i might put it down to 2.
couldnt u just take the moulding off behind where the hood sits? Should give u some nice heat dissapation, would look better that the hood looking broken.
