Yeah, rice it out.. go with chicken wire yo. lol jk

Your hood fits a lot better than mine. Then again, since my car's been wrecked, the factory hood didnt fit 100% the same either. So I have a small gap and it's raised a bit on one side. I thought about getting the Evo type CF hood too, but I've heard pro's and con's about the vents, rain, leaves, debris, etc. Too much of a pain for my lazy ass.

your right about the evo styles having there pros and cones and i think that oem style cf hoods look cleaner.. i was actualy gonna buy the DG oem hood. but after driving it around town in traffic in 80-90 degree weather im glad i got the evo style hood. the vents are REALLY effective. they are right above the turbo,mani and ic hot pipe...

Il have more pics when i install my FMIC, It takes a lil longer for me to put pics because i still got to develop them and then scan them
 
Just curious, where can I find a tag hole filler like the one shown below. And what does it say on it, if anything?

There was someone here in town here with an Orange MSP.... She used some sort of 'plug' she got from Honda. Then painted with touch-up paint. I don't recall the exact name of the part unfortunatly.

Probably the best way I have seen to fix those holes. A plate is extremely tacky in my opinion.


I usually just use the clone tool in Photoshop. ;)
 
I'm considering it heavily, but i'm not sure if it'll look good with the front lip or not. Input?
