Making the GT Hoodscoop Functional?

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 06:43 PM

I saw a write up on it and would it be a good idea to make the hood scoop functional? i gotta cut off some parts but would the air just be recirculating in there? also i got another question. i have some black FR500's with Nittos sitting in my room (off my v6) i was driving in the rain one time with the stock polished 18" with bfg kdw's and i fishtailed really really bad... made driving hell. my question is ive been trying to sell the FR500's trying to get some 20's but should i throw the FR500's on my GT and sell the polished bullitt's then get the 20's later or just stick with the 18's?

Thank's

the hood scoop will probably only make hood flutter worse and i would put the fr500s on if i were you.....

i was trying to avoid the black on black look this time.. with the v6 it attracted nothing but the cops..

Till · October 19th, 2009, 07:21 PM

stick with 18's just me though

How much would you like for the polished bullits Youngin?

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 09:02 PM

im not sure.. i have no idea what there worth. they have about 5000 miles on the tires and i never did a burnout.. mainly cause i didnt know how to on a manual lol...

and if i did sell i would probably do it locally cause i have no idea how im gonna ship these bad boys out.. i kinda dont want to either cause i love the polished look but my fr's arent selling and everyone in the family is getting mad there sitting in the room lol

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 09:03 PM

thats my v6

Till · October 19th, 2009, 09:12 PM

dude those are nice

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 09:13 PM

^ the reason i didnt put them on is because when i had them on my v6.. it felt like it was gofast car with those wheels. i wanted some 20's to make it more luxury if you get what im saying..

Till · October 19th, 2009, 09:16 PM

your car I think its nice though

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 09:20 PM

thanks tiller.. repps..

i think your omegle pedo skills are nice too!

but there sitting right now im contemplating this so hard.. i want 20's but no1 will buy these. i think it would be easier to sell the polished bullitt's..

I wouldn't hesitate to do it but just make sure you've got a set of nice hood pins because it's going to flutter more. I just don't like the idea of allowing any water in.

I know .. The cops always pull me over but I bet if I had chrome wheels they would never pull me over?

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 09:22 PM

someone said my v6 looks better than my v8..

those words cut me deep

Till · October 19th, 2009, 09:23 PM

im in cali. hasnt rain'd here in a long time but when it did my car drove like crap.. i saw a set of hood pins its the one you use with the key it looked cool and clean.. theres also a guy local to me that sells some hoodpins which unlock when i pop my hood.

well my v6 was blacked out and i got checked for drugs more than 10x... same with tat's and weapons... there excuse was my car was so black..

bigpappy33 · October 19th, 2009, 10:57 PM

same thing here, but then i get tickets for having my high beams on because my fog lights were on... Time for a new grille.

Id put the FR500s on for now and whenever you get compliments mention they are for sale

Youngin · October 19th, 2009, 11:00 PM

^ i like how you think...

reps...

damn now i dont wanna go to my trunk and get the jack lol... just take it to a tire shop..

both of my wheel setup has the TPMS sensors. the ones in the fr500 are from my v6.. they are universal right?
