Yes, the support rods that extend from the grill to the splitter. These things are a must on the SS and V6.

The splitter did match the Seibon, so any Seibon hood would be a good match to the APR. The fit of a Seibon is perfect too. Not sure of other brand hoods. You're going to pay around 1k for a Seibon.

As for the stock hood. You can do what I want to do and probably hang it on some wall of the house as a trophy or something...

Then, you can get some nice Yellow vinyl and wrap that baby any way you like... just another project for Bee!


Yea I'm looking on SouthernCarParts, they have a Seibon TS Style Carbon fiber hood that I like for $960, which ain't bad at all. Also seen a Vis racing one that I like. I will def wrap it, I found a seller (dgs-97) on eBay that does awesome work and have good ratings/reviews... I'm going to stick with the whole transformer theme but step it up a notch... just have to do it with taste and not go overboard haha

VIS is said to be very good as well. I've got the Seibon TSII. Best 1k I've ever dropped at once on this ride.

That VIS one looks awesome! Whichever way you go, Seibon or VIS, its going to be a win for sure.


Drove it to work today in the rain. New tires so no longer in fear of sliding around with them worn out NT05's. The NT555 G2's are much better for the rain.

Looks good. Did you have it cleared before install? Does it waver at all on hwy speeds without the hood pins.

If you're referring to the hood. No, when I was originally looking into this I spoke with both OHIO Speed and SEIBON on whether the hood was clear-coated, or gel. They both told me it was a clear-coat. Its been on for a good 1+yrs now and its showing NO signs of fading or solar damage.

Also, it came with a hard plastic liner, along with the latch already installed. It was basically like installing the stock hood back on. It doesn't shift, vibrate, or anything of the sort at speed. I've been thinking about the hood pins, but simply for cosmetic purposes only.

I figured both would be a win either way also.... I have the Pirelli Zero all season Plus and they hold pretty well. I don't drive it when the weather is not to my liking so I don't know why I let them put all seasons on smh. I should invest in some high performance tires to really have some fun haha.
Oh and did you change out your door handles or did they come that way, if so where did you order them from?

I did change them out myself. Got them from phastekperformance.com. A bit pricey for door handles, but they are well made and heavy - feels like cast iron. Easiest mod to install to date.
