in other words, the jdm sir style has the center of the hood raised up a tad rather than the center sinking in like our usdm hoods. and the only b series you should have a problem with hood clearance would be the gsr or type r motors. have a front strut brace or aftermarket intake that could be sitting too high? if all else fails, slam the sucka! lol

You either timed that picture just right, or you hooked up the turn signals as running lights.

Then the corner lights would have been brighter.

FYI, the bump in the VIS ZC style hood is cosmetic only. the fiberglass skeleton is the same one they use for the OEM USDM hood. so if you're looking for more clearance, get the SiR Style for USDM front ends.

I did the same thing with my lights on my sir conversion, i took a spare dual filament socket from a taillight and modified it to fit the lenses, and just ran the extra wire(for parking lights) to the corner lights
