Is it for the "I just hit a wall" look? ..or is there more to it?
Looks ridiculous to me.

It's a misguided attempt to cool the engine bay.
Looks ridiculous to me.

If I remember correctly, when tested, they actually increase under bonnet temps due to the turbulence at the back of the bonnet when the car is moving.
[edit] And yes, they do make the car look like it's been in an accident.

I wondered if it was because of massive modifications that meant the bonnet has to sit physically higher - big turbo manifold, or huge throttle bodies or something.. weird.

It's for attention seeking tramps.

I did a quick Google search since starting this thread and some of the bollocks I've read from people is making me want to kill myself. Figuratively speaking, of course.

On occasion some engine transplants need the bonnet raised (evo lump into proton) to clear parts.
Personally I think it looks cool. Especially if U have a blingy bay. People can sneak a peak.
But what do I know, I put big wings on FWD cars
