Lightbulb ram air hood

What do you guys think about my custom hood. Still in the process of final prep. Should have it sanded and painted some time this month. I am going to run a fog machine through the nostrils and run true ram air.

Def. diffrent, cool that you got a wagon also. I think that mabey if it was the scoops were a little bit wider it would be nicer, (kinda like WickedWorx's Camry) but yeah, thats just my opinion man. Keep up the good work!

Maybe it is the angle but I think Bluemeanie is right no err left wait ughhh.

If it really is a bit off, consider removing your Toyota emblem from the grill. Then finding a point of reference will be more difficult and the error less noticable.

i dont think it looks that bad, pretty alright to me. i like how you've done it yourself, and the 'nostrils' dont look as high as those civic ones which are quite over the top and quite ridiculous.

p.s if it is off centre it is only by a fraction. what makes it appear off is that the inside vertical part on the right nostril comes down a bit further than it counterpart on the left hand one

well I am not finished yet, I just started a couple of weeks ago. I am going to build up the right nostril to make it more even. While I was putting it on my brother moved it slightly after I measured it. So I will have to do more work getting it perfect. But it is good enough for government work.

It doesn't really fit the styling of the Camry... its more of the american muscle car rice.

No I live in Pensacola florida. Nothing will fit my car, so I am forced to custom everything. I custom put the body kit on and my new hood. I have done everything myself. It is not like a honda where everything bolts right up to it. It looks real good compared to a stock v6 93 camry wagon.
