Re: ickna11's EX Coupe (56k)

Looks like you have some great mods and know what you're doing.
Most people are going to tell you to change the hood and headlights asap but I say just change the headlights. I'm sure you can find a way to make the hood work.

The hood looks way better IRL, plus I got it as a gift so I am kinda stuck with it.
Working on some designs for a retrofit as well.

I think it always comes down to how people pull off the look with those headlights. I think you could make it work because it doesn't look to bad. But not a fan of the hood.
