I was already planning on having either an opening or removable hood to get a better view of the engine. My prototype (before I start on the GTR will be my LXX red supra, which I will try to do from materials around the house because I need a little more money to go out and buy the parts. I may also dremel out the front grill, and replace it with a piece of fine mesh screen. I'm also thinking of making a futuristic concept car which will look something like a Delorean (Back to the Future) or a toyota Sprinter, but with a rear mounted engine, because I want to try my hand at making vertically mounted engines (Enzo type) Posted below is a picture of a sample engine, but it is done in paint so it is not the best quality, and it is based on mental referances. I also agree with you Ice, it is pretty hard to cut off the hoods precisely, I just score it until it is loose enough to pop off with my finger. Thanks for the comment Tiny!

EDIT-I guess the NOS bottle shouldn't be up by the engine, oh well
