ok im gonna do that myself with some car toolkit toying, may i upload my version crediting you?

It is a carbon car model right? Next gen. But why dont you use hoods from sl500? It is way better than to just fill slots with made up autosculpt parts. Those things looks very weird. And, also base the roof scoop mount point from sl500? I think itll perfect this.

You're welcome :D
Also don't use it if you don't like it. Constructive criticism is accepted, said that, if you want to complain, do it in a better way and not insulting the work of somebody.
