yea um no problems yet with rain the only thing is the air filter .... and yes we are going to curve it more and extend the sides and guess what it probably wont happen around here hahaha i live in a peaceful town haha the worst to happen is like a fire LOL

and besides its either outfront of my house and everyone has loud mouths orrrrrrrrrr its at work in the cameras in the parking lot lol

so not to worried about it besides if you can actaully cut the steel with a dremel more power to you lol you would be out there for a while doing so since the supports are still there and whatnot ... you wont be able to really open the hood lol and i would hope someone notices someone outside in the middle of the night with a dremel it wouldnt be quiet lol

I dont know if some people are dicks on purpose... or if they just dont understand constructive criticism. Nice attempt at somthing different, if i could suggest somthing - if you have a welder - cut straight lines from the corners of the big hole towards the windshield, push it down a little so it adds definiton and some aero... theres examples of it on car domain, (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2174082)(JUST A THOUGHT) again, mad props on the attempt.

So... I rarely venture into the tC area, but after hearing about the 'Domokun Hood', I felt like I needed to.

I hope you have other plans for that thing, because, right now, it's completely ridiculous.

It's just... GAH!

There's so much more you coulda done to it and still have a vented hood. Right now, you might as well run around without a hood on there, and, as pointed out before, hope you don't really like your turbo.

Overall,

Wow. Should have just coughed up the $700 for the Kami reverse cowl hood if you wanted something that could vent. Good job destroying a stock hood.

Oh yea, and you made your car THAT much easier to steal. A 4 year old could get thru that chicken wire ****. You're not worthy of having a turbo, you're a ricer. Fix the hood, sell the car, and go get a Honda. Your ways might be accepted over there.

sorry, not feeling it

just grab an OEM cf hood. it would look 10000x nicer

or even the kaminari reverse cowl like stated previously

or just bondo back up the holes and go back to OEM

Your cut out design is awful...also that Neon's hood looks really unsafe, he basically ruined the structure of the hood.
