I don't reckon it looks too bad.. EB's have the squarer look so they don't need a bodykit for a bonnet buldge imo.

You would need a EDXR lip or a sprint lip to complement the work on the hood....Thats what I recon. |

I think LOWXR has a BA bonnet bulge with only a sprint kit (minor body kit) and it looks pretty good. I don't have any pics though

dezza is correct, low xr has it. The only down side to the bonnet bulge is: No window washers....... NOT RWC

surely you could just relocate the window washers, besides I wouldnt think the bluge would get in the way of them??
