I dont think that it would look good unless your engine looked like goldcelica's. 01 celica GT, AEM pulley, Injen CAI, Grillcraft grilles, custom antenna, altezza tails, grounding kit, TSRM

Trust me I seen him Hit the nitros on an open street on a Military Facility. Anyway. He had an engine swap and the engine was so damn clean he felt compelled to show it off. He Cut a 1 1/2 by 1 1/2 square in his hood in the center and put a piece of clear plexiglass in there and sealed it with some Aircraft sealant. That shit is clean looking and it doesnt melt or anything. Its like a lil window into whats goin on. Very nice. SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: Post Whoring May Result In Premature Brain Retardation
