Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior torn on hoods...

ok...I'm gonna be getting another 2003 razzi front lip, and WW sides and rear pretty soon, and after that I'm looking to get a carbon fiber hood...and I'm torn on two of them...should I go with the invader hood, or the varis cooling hood>>>>> varis hood [bulletproofautomotive.com] I think the varis hood is tons more original, and is attention whoring at the least...which means it would be better for shows...you guys tell me...also, if I get the invader hood I'm gonna paint the scoop solar yellow to match my car

the varis hood is cool but i dont like the way the scoop looks small, and it looks molded (clean) too so you probably cant change it to a raised hoodscoop without custom job, i would have to go with invader with that painted scoop, ive seen someone else do it and it looks nice

yeah...the varis hood os like $400 more, but its just so wild!!! damn I'm torn

and the Varis hood wont fit a US celica. Cruise Control is in the way

$400 more?? whoa, thats too much for a hood bro.. so around 700-900? dont spend too much but yeah that would be unique and if you get that custom raised hood scoop it will look so nice on that Varis hood

Who needs cruise control???

That's one crazy lookin' hood dude, you'd definately be the first in the states IMO, I'd do it

no cruise control ...can't do it...cruise control helps me stay responsible on the highway (bad speeder)...guess I can't have it then...oh well

That broke my heart. Varis looked sweet, too.

varis is ghey


i dont like invader either...

my choice is oem with raised hoodscoop

That Varis is pretty sweet, I havent seen anything like that in detroit yet, if you have the extra cash Id say get the varis hood,

I would get the VAris hood but it doesn't fit our cars...and I'm keeping cruise control!!...I really don't want to go OEM because its too plain for me, and I've seen too many people with them. lots of people have the invader too, and that's why I was eyeballing the varis hood...hmmmm...I wonder...what if I got the varis hood, and had the bottom of the passenger side scoop shaved, and screened over to match the drivers side...now that might be something wild...but not for the kind of moneythat would be involved...if I'm gonna pay 1,300 for a new hood on my car I'll just order the damn c-one carbon fiber hood ...ahh hel, I'll probably just end up with the invader and paint the raised scoop...I saw a super white TRD celi, and it had an invader hood, but he painted the whole thing...looked pretty clean...

ew that hood is ugly..
get an OEM Carbon Fiber hood

...the OEM is too plain for me

The VIS Extreme hood is clean, but it's still pretty aggressive.

hmmmm...I'd have to think about it

I don't know how the weather is were you live but when it rains you will be drowning you're engine I love the hood tough but in the Dutch Climate it just is impossible :S raining 300 day's a year :S

nah...its pretty sunny over here...it rains, but I try not to drive in it, and its nowhere near 300 days a year (Girlfriend has a car for a reason )

no, the side with the Intake dosnt have a hole... its just on the pass. side
