well, i have the Invader front bumper being installed on my car right now, and i was either gonna get the zyclone hood, or the gt4, although the gt4 is growing on me every day. So i was wondering how much of a gap there is between the bumper and the hood when doing this? and maybe pics of this gap, so i could judge for myself whether or not its worth it

I thought it was like 1.5 to 2 inches. I think 2 inches is a bit on the high side of that guess. I would just get the zyclone version and call it a day.
Found it:

Becuase there should be a rubber boot that it connects with when the hood is closed. This post has been edited by MaskedMan: Sep 21, 2007 - 2:06 AM --------------------  |

wish there was some way to put that into a CF zyclone hood, would probably take a ton of work though, and degrade the CF itself
 although that gap kind of reminds me of... a ford focus maybe? i know there is a car that has a gap like that
