Hey, it's all in what theme you are going for with the exterior mods. The hood may not look good on a stock car, but if the car is completely modded, the hood may provide a different look.

of course it doesnt flow with the tC's lines your looking at hoods off of other cars, once you see one designed for the tC you'll be singing a diffrent story. personaly id like to see hood with some kind of center buldge like in the m3. We have like 3 m3 stle looking kits on our cars, and having an m3 style bulge on top would be a nice complimentary modification.

this one has the hood lines and a square vent style and looks damn way better than the motorfx one




any one can photoshop the supra hood on the tC or this hood on the tC?

no that still wouldnt follow the tC's lines and that only way it would work on the tC is if the vents were pushed to the back of the hood. The left and right sides of the vents would have to follow the same angle as the left and right hood indentation lines. Even though the hood above does not follow these rules on that skyline hood, this is how it would look best for the tC, and finally this is how it would not look generic.

The bulge on the top of the E46 M3 hood is for a reason - the engine is actually that tall, so that's needed to clear it properly. It isn't necessary for the Scion and the vent for the Scion would have to be near the back of the hood to be functional.

I'm not a fan of building my Scion into a BMW. I had a 2001 330xi before this car and let BMWs be BMWs and Scions be Scions. [/b]

This style of hood should look great on the tC's even for the xA.

I say this one must be made, if I had the money and it was available I would surely take it.
