Yea I mean I just want to know what the people on this site consider to be "ricer" and whats not I wasn't trying to be rude or anything. but I do not see how a cowl induction hood would be considered "ricer" thats all.

anything you do to your ride can be considered rice. its all just a matter of opinion thats all. i personally like the cowl hood and would love to make on or pick one up for my alero.But do i care what others think? no, only cause I am building my car for me not everyone else. what kind of fenders would you all like to see?

metal fender, neverdone made some that flarded out an inch more. personally I kinda like the v-fivber ones but more would say a metal not so cheezy cut out on would be better.

you should get a stock hood, make some molds, and maybe try and form a nice cowl  instead of actually having to mold a cowl hood. im sure it can be done, just gonna take some time.

If you make a dash cap, I'll buy one...and a cowl hood if you can get it done before neverdone gets the bubble hood out. which I assume will take a while (if they ever do it)

Can you make pods that allow fitment of a 6" speaker in the kick panel near the hood open, and vice versa on the passenger side? i saw them once, and they would really add to my sound setup. Also, quad gauge pod?

the speaker pods in the kick panels will hold either a 6.5 component or a single 6.5 coaxal. as far as he cowl hood. I will have to make one first, perfect it then make a mold of it. So my first cowl hood will be out of metal, then the rest will be fiberglass. same with the fenders

ok so I am almost done with the kick pod prototype and have done a mock up of a door panel. please let me know what you think on the door panel.
colors on the door panel will depend on what you want.

I drove thru E-town past Big O today, I think I saw a silver Alero parked on the far end of the lot. I must have seen 10 Aleros today, 2 with aftermarket rims. |
