I wonder if it was the hood or bumper that was modded.
Neat. I haven't come across this before.
I think it's the bumper, the top (where the Toyota symbol is) seems to be a bit pushed down. The hood hasn't seemed to lose any shape. Very clean job though, nicely done. Then again, the hood does seem to slope a bit more...I guess it might have been a bit of both?

Wouldn't the hood need to be pushed UP to match with the GT-Four bumper?
So it probably isn't the hood. They might have cut a bit of the bulge out of the bumper to bring it down to meet the hood, as it doesn't seem to protrude like others.

^ makes way more sense to modify the bumper a little than try to reshape the entire hood
Coming in 2010full paintjob - new wheels - modified body - new interior - engine build- marriage

jcbass7's coupeit looks like the top of the bumper was modified on both
QUOTEwhat hes saying is if you put blue lights in you car youll lose hp.
The coupe was done up by a member called "daftboy", and unless he did some work to it, I know that the bumper is stock - because that is my old bumper.
The hood might not be flush in those pictures. The bumper might bulge up above the hood, but due to the angle the pictures are taken you wouldn't see that. Your best bet is to PM daftboy and ask him what he did to fit it.

95CST, I edited my post...I meant bumper, not hood.
