Sorry, but it looks like a riced out Civic front end has been fused to the front of a perfectly good Max.

Not a good combo.

Uh, not according to this thread, I am not the only one! It also depends on the calibre of the people you are around what they think of the hood and front end...a bunch of teens and 20+ years olds have a different opinion of cars than the rest of us who own them. As far as the Civic comparison...not my fault it is the truth.

Wanna see mine...check out my sig a few posts back..it is not that difficult.

You don't like it, fine...I do and I am not going around posting about how many people do or don't...I like it. End of story.

WTF Someone wanted opinions on CF/double scoop hoods, then someone flamed Shabby for his off topic comment, followed by Woo Cho getting offended, bout comments not even directed at him. Who cares if your car looks like a fu@kin riced out 84' Datsan, let alone Civic. ITS YOURS, just like this was someone elses thread about hoods. If you want to get into a pi$$ing match go to chat. Now that I am done being crabby, I don't like the double scoop hood either, and carbon fiber looks good on most color max's. If I had the extra cash I would rather the CF.

It all starts when people ask stupid questions like 'What do ya'll think about...' Who cares what anyone else thinks?

Good God, grow up and let it go.

You came here and presented your car as an example, you did not prohibit comments. You brought opinions upon yourself. As can be seen by the very next thread from mine, your experience is clearly not 'wut everyone else told about' your hood.

If you can't distinguish between a comment about your car and a 'comment directed at' you, you need to mature quite a bit.

How many days are you going to whine about this?

i agree with MJK. that's a bad a** hood! where did you get it? i've been
looking around for it. ever since i saw it, i wanted it. it also looks
better than a stock CF hood. I want to be a little different, than most
other max's. i hope you don't mind me copying you.
i already went through my ricey phase. your car is far from ricey.
