#89236, "Invader hood is on..PICS"


          

Went on pretty smooth, finding a place for the hood pins and drilling the holes was the hard part. Not very sunny out but heres some pics.
Next to come is... New Rims, CF Wangan wing, Stillen front. Then I can start on rebuild and turbo to back it all up.

You never see them... because they are UGLY!

But to each their own I guess... I usually won't call what someone else wants to do ugly, but I think that wing is hideous and won't look good at all... Why ruin such a hot car with that wing?

Just my opinion, if you like it, go for it.

OMG that is one of the nicest eclipses i have ever seen. that color looks AWESOME matched with that carbon hood. Great Job dude, keep up the good work.

Edit:
P.S. Keep it with no wing on it. i love kitted eclipses with no wings.

The hood looks great, but like ^^^^ said, If I were you, I would get some black housing projectors. You dont have any chrome on your car. You have black or gunmetal rims it looks like and you have a carbon hood which is dark, therefor leading you to get darker housed headlights

Now, for the wangan wing! You got to be kidding!
Do not do that to your car dood, seriously. Its just my opinion, but if I were you, I wouldnt do it. Yes, they are rare, and its cuz they look so funky.

Thank you. I just sent the last car payment, so this car will really transform in the next year. I paid 495 shipped VIS.

Thanks man. And thanks for the tip on where to mount them! Did you have as many problems as i did trying to mount them on those tabs without the bolt hitting the back of the headlight. I used Sparco pins whick may have had a longer bolt. Let me tell you, It took me like 20mins to build up the nerve to drill through that pretty CF.

Yes. I will probably go back to stock, if not black housing projectors.

Thanks and yes that Wangan wing is hot, If anyone can point me in the direction of a better CF lip type wing let me know.

Here's my thinking on that wing. I was going to stay wingless seeing that i did a lot of work shaving the hatch. But, now that this hood went on, my car looks front heavy from the side view. I need a wing that will balance it out a bit and i need it to be CF to set off the hood.I hate high wings, And No, the Turbo wing will not look good on my car. I love low deck wings and the wangan is subtle yet enough to balance out the car. And i need to balance out the CF up front now.
