Yeah doesnt look to be in the right position to me, too far foward as scott said.

Would look a lot beter if it were back a little more. Im sure it would take that much to try and re drill the washer nozzle holes and re mount them.

But then again, not a fan of buldges on I6's...

But each to thier own.

Will that make your bonnett harder to open, i hope so.... :lol:
nope... its not any harder to open... unless you happen to be a wimp.. :lol: ... wheels- looks.. body kit- looks.. lowered- looks.. bulge- looks.. see the patern..

I don't see the bulge being any more rice than any other bodykit part, or increasing wheel for looks.

For those that say it's too far forward, is that because you think it looks too far forward on the car? Or because your comparing it with tha BA/F position?

I think it looks too far foward on the car, not comparing it too the BA/BF at all.

Just looks in the wrong position to me. If you look at fordman351's in his sig that looks a lot better, looks more central, and just looks right.
