Only time you should have your hook in place is when you are at the track. For some reason people think it makes them cool or something to drive around town with them on the car. The Honda guys do this all the time, should tell you something.

Buy one. They do look cool and they can be used in a pinch. But mostly they look cool haha. I bought mine here. It says 350 but it fits 370 just fine. They come in several colors too. The packaging is awesome and it arrived on time.

Also doin your halos on your own is actually really easy. The toughest part for me was finding a big enough oven. I recomend doing it yourself, nothin like turnin the wrench yourself follow the DIY and it shouldn't be too bad. This forum is the only tool you'll ever need

I'm scared to do it alone. I'll see if I find good enough prices on halos I'll probably do it. And thanks I got the hook in red. Only thing I'm scared of is that the DIY show u how to take it apart. They don't should u how to glue them together and stuff.

Them ladies love to hook.





Err, THE hook.





Real talk though, I guarantee [most] ladies would notice the hook before a turbo/exhaust. They either don't know/don't care/are annoyed by the latter. The former is just an accessory, mainly for looks on street driven cars (some exceptions, no doubt, to the women and cars with two hooks).

And this is where I started to get into trouble here on the forum. Should I put that license plate holder in my signature as a mod?
