Used parts? Good luck since guys with GT500's swap out their whole front end pretty often....

Looks great. congrats!

As far as the louvers, it won't hurt anything with water getting in. I have friends that have this hood, as well as similar hoods for the GT front end, and their cars sit out all the time.

That is quite a compliment thank you. Just a quick q. Does your louvers go right through onto the motor? Is there a drip tray?

Id like to keep my engine in show quality condition or atleast the best I can keep it. I think with water running on it and it being a daily driver it would look crappy really fast. Especially since its parked outside.

Thanks
Kevin

Yeah mine has a tray that re routes the water away from engine..
Biggest challenge is keeping the underside of hood clean from bugs coming through the front vents
