I've seen this mod on a lot of Honduhs at the local shows and races... some looked good, but most looked like junk. It all depends on the hardware you use. I personally think it looks pretty cool, but I wouldn't do it without finding quality hinges.... but I'm sure with jess' expertise in custom fabrication making some nice ones should be no problem.
