I'm putting a bulge in it [=

Going to leave it open at the back too with some mesh in it.... Help evacuate some hot air.

Do i want spacers?

I'll definatly have to cut my arches if i put spacers on. My tyres rub on full lock and are pretty much under my arches so spacers would create alot of work....

Would it work?

What ya recon

I have a set of those spacers here, think there 38mm..
I was going to use them on the front of my rear wheel drive 4g,
Still have'nt got around to building it though

Not at the moment man, i'll try find them and post a pic or two later

I was planning on using the engine, box and back axel from a 1977 mkII celica (1600 dohc on twin 45's).
The rear quarters would have to be made 3.5" wider on each side to suit the celica axel, so it would look savage with the spacers on the front

ah ok

Hadstec on crxuk has put a vent in the top of his VT bonnet. looks good, almost OEM. He got it from a Ford Transit van, might be worth looking into

Cool man i'll have a look. I think i'm going to add a "naca duct" above where the airfilter sits. And the bulge is like a more emthasised vtec bonnet [= If that makes sense haha!

I'll have a think about it

When you say widebody guess you mean flared arches? Could bring my bumper out to meet the arches if i did that, would imagine it will look savage! Could even make the arch lower to make the wheels look really tucked

haha!

As a freeman-on-the-land im not subject to legalities

But the arches would take a battering if they were left standard...
