Its a "hood tilt" mod, people usually do it to lower engine temperature but really who knows how functional it actually is. It stared out in the American muscle era and now the JDM guys are doing it.

The people that failed you are dicks btw.

As for the JDM scene, I've heard that it kinda tells you the turbo is so big that it doesn't let the hood latch properly. Mostly Nissan and Toyota guys doing it

Don't know what to believe

Thanks. Lol surprised I got failed for asking a legitimate question I'm sure tons of other people ask. I suppose you gotta know what the fuck sort of ricer mods all these kids are up to these days or else get failed by these thin-skimned morons.

i just did it cause i like the look, i did that for like 2 years i don't really notice any pros or cons to cooling, i am looking to get a vented hood sometime whenever the cdn $ is stronger.
but ya, i love that it gets a lot of confused and angry opinions from general public when i am driving to places haha(not just the hood, the whole car in general, especially when wheels don't match, skinny tires etc.)

You get confused looks because it just looks like it's not fitting properly, period. The rest of the car looks fine and I like concave TE37s.

Don't slam it. If I could do it over again I'd convert my car to 4WD, buy a lift kit and big tires. It's cool for awhile, then you realize how much of an inconvenience it is, and how you have to apologize to all your passengers about how stiff the ride is, nevermind the fact that you have to avoid carrying heavy loads or avoid carrying passengers altogether to prevent rubbing or scraping

Unless you go with bags, then that's another story. I will never slam another car with coils again. Besides, the global automotive scene seems to have departed the stancenation era for the most part.

Nah, I still enjoyed the Mustang, and if I had bought it in the manual I would probably still have it.

Drove a friends 2015 WRX on a road trip about 4 months ago and it was perfect for my needs. Problem was finding one without a sunroof, in a manual, and in red.
