Well I think that hood doesnt look too bad on the 7, but on the 240? Definately not. That hood doesnt do it for me at all.

And whats wrong with caring about looks? I personally would like my car to nice as hell as well as perform and if Im gonna chose a CF hood for my car, it will have to look nice along with function. Bodykit wise its the same thing. If Im gonna get it, it has to have a combo of niceness and an actual function. That just my opinion though.

On the S14, the outer edge of the vents should match the formed line on the hood. I think that the vents are at too much of an angle and makes it look akward. Kinda takes away from the contour of the hood. Just my opinion. The concept is great, just needs tweaking cosmetically.

yeah. remove that front vent. maybe add an extra "gill" looking vent in front of the existing "gills". also make the gills wider. allot wider.

maybe mix the c-west and that hood together to make something. still without that front vent
