then the entire hood would be dull looking.
i know i would get some paint chips without a clearbra but to me, paint chips are better than having a dull looking hood.

what? dull looking? last i looked at my car you can't even spot the clear bra until really really close to it...the paint isn't "dull looking" to me.

well, i only saw it on the black E55 and the area with the clearbra was really dull looking compared to the area without it and the lines were very visible to me.

i guess it isn't as effective on darker color cars as it is on lighter color cars.

It must have been either old or a bad one. I had it on my black sti and it was perfectly clear like Phelan said.

Great mod, but they'll not pass emissions or visual inspection, and most states got retarded penalties for that crap nowadays.

chuckd05 · 03-05-2010, 11:36 PM

Well in NY if your Engine light is off, you're fine for inspection. 9 out of 10 times you car wont go up on the lift... There is also a ton of shops around so if you just be honest with them , you will find one to pass you. I guess it depends on how strict your state is though.

There are a drawbacks with the test pipes but should make a smidge more power than the hfc

very True NY really only cares about the check engine light and that all of the readiness codes are set (your allowed (1) not ready) they don't really bother with pulling the wheels off and putting on the lift (unless you get a shop looking to soak you for money)

Kraken370 · 12-19-2015, 05:36 PM

My first mod was aam exhaust.

shadow85 · 02-28-2016, 10:58 PM

So what would be the maximum power I can get from my 2015 370Z without going twin turbo or supercharged and what a the costs normally?
