Ooo, I love the concept here at the very least. Would need to see it a bit more to be sure, but it looks like it's a risk of ripping off and flying into the windshield lol
I really think this car needs some after market options to replace the silly hood insert though. I'm curious how you managed to get it to look like a carbon fiber weave with gloss on it. It is a sticker or some photoshop magic?
I have seen others remove the plastic insert from the hood entirely. I'm wondering if you could design it in a way that it would attach to the mounts that the built-in plastic piece attaches to? Not a request, just a suggestion to think about if you were interested.
I am planning to swap the entire hood so I doubt I'll do something like this, but I'm keeping an open mind if someone develops a carbon fiber piece that matches my side mirrors that snaps in solidly then I might save a bunch of money and go that route
