    Default Walkinshaw Hood Pictures??

    I am contemplating putting a Walkinshaw hood "scoop" on my SS-V conversion here in the US. I have looked without very much success for some up close pictures showing how it blends with the hood.
    Do any you have such a hood and would be willing to get some up close shots of the fit and finish. Especially interested in a Black Walky Hood on an Evoke Grey VE.

    Thanks!

    Stop contemplating that lol its like putting a HSV front end on an SS it just looks cheap and wrong (IMO) your SS is one of the best looking ones ive ever seen, those bulky bits will kill the awesome look you have on it now, (this is a personal opinion)

    I love the look of your car now, but i did a quick mock up of the hood so you can decide for yourself. Not the best quality hood picture, but it gives you the idea

    Evoke on evoke

    + 1 leaving it the way it is.. The hood looks like a cheap addition that someone threw on top of the bonnet! It doesn't flow with the design of the car. I hope you know what I mean.

    Nate just sent me this picture, I LOVE THIS!


    I was leaning towards doing the scoop in black, on the grey hood, but that photo makes me consider a solid grey hood with it blended like that!!

    In regards to the Halo Headlights. I DO NOT Recomment the company that I went through. There customer service is poor, and the quality of their work is worse.
    I am about to catch a flight to Singapore, so I don't have time to explain right this moment.
    Will do when I get to Singapore.

    It wasn't AACstyle was it? I've been speaking to them and have been considering getting it done.

    ...Leave your hood as is BTW
