Please don't...

I think that ranks up there with "lambo" doors

Personally I like lambo doors...... but I still wouldnt do that I think a better comparison would be with the "shopping cart spoiler". I mean its your car man you like it go for it, its prolly a track system that allows the hood to slide after you open it.

Honestly if you blow that picture up it looks like it is just on prop-rods holding it there. I think its just made to come off and sit on them.

Just trying to be polite, but if you'd rather I can just flame someone for their idea that I don't agree with.

Instead of that reply ... you could be polite in saying something like ..

Imo it does not look good ...
Imo I do not like it ...

Imo ... Its their car and they are looking for feedback or opinions ... not someone actually saying do or dont do it. saying "please dont" makes you sound kind of rude. Almost like your telling someone not to do what they want to do to their car.

Wow, Thin skinned much? Here let me fix it for you.

Imo....The vast majority of people are going to flame you for that mod, I said "please don't" to deter you from doing so, but I guess that was over the line. So by all means go ahead and do it, but be ready for what will come
