Dont get me wrong though Infinite, I like what you've done with the rest of the car, I mean no disrespect when I say that I cant see the point of what you're doing with the bonnet, it's just my opinion.

Are ya gonna reverse the bootlid opening as well? ;) Good on ya for doing something a bit different, you don't see body mods on imports particularly often (bar the almost mandatory shaving of locks)
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

not really a fan of it...i don't see why its so great to be different either..surely you dont have to feel the need to be "different" in all aspects...i personally think modifying your car shouldn't be done just for the sake of begin different, but because YOU genuinely like what your doing and don't really give a crap about what everyone else thinks...

In saying that, looks like you've done a good job in achieveing the result you wanted...

Modifying your own car shouldnt really matter to anyone else as long as you are happy with what youve done. Too many people follow the crowd and thats how all the stupid crazes hapen.
Nice job

Exactly TRD_ZERO.
I have Tein SS in my Skyline, 90% of guys are like "its not low enough!" and my wheels stick inside the guards (wrong offset) and people are like "get spacers!"

End of the day.. I drive it.. I pay for it.. I'll do what I like to it.

Man, I didn't know that a bit of custom work would cause so much contraversy. I guess we should just get cefiros with cut springs then, would ensure that everybody gets along. :roll:
