#74470, "Invader OR OEM CF HOOD? And... pics of my new VC!"

Well first I wanna say that I took everyones advise and painted my somewhat new valve cover the same color as my car... I just have to wait for it to cure to put it on.... whatcha think??

OLD....

AND....... New, Just got it back from the paint shop emoji

Now which hood should I stick with?? The Invader Hood... or my OEM CF HOOD??? You guys will decide what I do... so if I get more votes for the OEM, I'm selling the Invader and buying a new OEM CF HOOD... OR I might just keep the Invader for shows or something?? I dunno....

I use to have a White 99 GS Sport with a Star Stage II Ball Bearing T3/T4 turbo...it was fun untill....well those who remember me know emoji Oh Ya...this is what I have now... a 99' GSX...

OEM the invader hood doesnt look right. Our cars have natural organic curves and the invader hood doesnt go well. But thats my opinion.

fer shure!!!

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

The OEM hood is something that is already original and unique to eclipses ONLY. Very sexy and nothing else compares.

Man I say go with the OEM. And sand the tops of those letters on that VC starting with like 220 and work your way up to 2000 or so. The polished letters would be a nice contrast.

your car is thoroughly clean and smooth. The OEM CF hood accents it well. the other would be more for an all out body kit car.

Invader hood. OEM is the boring, especially if you're show car imo. Silly eclipse boys and all their oem nonsense emoji

well i got the oem cf hood on my car but if you had your choice i would go with invader. its really a bad ass hood. if anyone has an invader and they really want that oem hood ill gladly trade. of course if i had my choice id go with the xtreme gt hood. i got a friend who turned his avenger into a complete eclipse front end and his hood looks bad as hell.
