Re: Project illmotion
Not a fan myself, just the way its too obvious its a strip sitting there - maybe if it was one piece with the bonnet or something.
Ive always wondered what itd look like if a custom bonnet was made to come down more/modify the fender so you can stick in some good looking lights, maybe something like the new lancer lights... Im sure with enough money itd be easy enough.

I don't like eyelids myself but they blend in the ends of your LED's on the bottom half of your lights.
So....
They look good on your car......

Re: Project illmotion
nah that looks horrible, im talking about the bonnet to match the lights, not just overhang them
So, put in the lancer lights, then work panels around them

Re: Project illmotion
I followed Vectose Mounting points which you can find here http://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.ph ... bonnet+gas instead of drilling into the actual car and using blind rivets which would be better (what bennoz did viewtopic.php?f=22&t=15644&start=1080) but this method was just easier going with stock holes and drilling into the strut mount itself.Sahin wrote:Nice! i was going to do the bonnet struts on my car too.. where did you get them from and more pics of the mounting points?
and you can just get the struts of ebay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/universal-ca ... 333wt_1064

Re: Project illmotion
The top of the slots should be at the front I believe.
Edit: It seems that apparently they can go either way depending. Go off the manufacturer's recommendation. There should be a sticker somewhere.

Re: Project illmotion

I never had a look at dstocks' rotors, I believe he was telling us that his rotors are identical on each side.
