Default Got Vents???

yes, i know, this is pointless.
i didnt make these for functionality, i made them to make em.

their rediculously huge scoops and i made them like that on purpose
im not sure if im going to sell the set or use them on a car yet.
i suppose that all depends on who would buy them....

i think the overall look is kinda cool in a cartoonish sort of way
what do you guys think?
BTW,IMO this is the only setup i have seen that the wild wing looks good on....








cheers,
Bondo

imo you could lose the roof scoop, but the ones on the hood look ok.

Not a crowd pleaser but the workmanship you put into it is pretty near smooth! you should add some side vents like the Ferrari's has now - just an idea to take it to the next level - then call it "Xtreme Airflow Mustang" or something like that .

To add on to X's statement, make sure the vents slope inwards first, and have fins routing air into them, a la Ferrari Testarossa.

You guys know it's not supposed to look realistic, right?

So don't criticize Bondo for not making it look realistic, because that's not what he had in mind while building these scoops.

But, it has great craftsmanship, haha.

hey, i hate to criticize your work, but if you look closely, the hoodscoops are currently not lined up. you can fix it with some clever putty work though.

Are you sure it's not the angle you are looking at? From the from view the driver's side might be a mm thinner on the right,but that is about the only thing I can see. Without a top view it is hard to tell length wise.

Bondo's been captured by RICE...we must save him!!

lol. I'm gonna be honest, the car itself looks terrible with all those scoops; BUT the scoops themselves are very well crafted. Especially the ones on the rear windows.
