Default Cervini's '67 Hood Pix

Finally got the car back from the shop. Here are some quick shots I snapped last night. Gotta say, I love the way it looks. The scoop is just big enough.

Thanks guys.
iROK - They are painted on. My guy did them in the proper Shelby dimensions. If you look closely at the front bumper, you'll notice a slight inward taper to the outside of the stripes. Here is a link to the measurements:

The color was matched to the stock rims. I have chrome Halibrands that I use in the summer, but I have not had the time to install them yet. When I get them on, I'll post some side shots.

Thanks for replying... I'd love to have my car painted, but I went with vinyl this time... I took delivery of a Cervini's Ram Air (1171) hood last week & will be striping it, along with the whole car this week. The stripes (from Baltimore Street Mods) were cut with the taper as you pointed out... that's the only way they'll look right on the car. I'll post pics of mine when I finish it. It's Vista Blue & the new stripes are Matte Black... I'm trying for a more subdued, sinister look.

Congratulations again on your GR8 looking car!

I had matte black painted originally, but they started to develop a shine after about 2 1/2 years. You're doing it right by going vinyl with matte. That way if they start to look bad, you can just peel off and re-apply new ones. Matte paint is a b*tch to work with. Can't wait to see that subtle (but tough) blue/black look.

Yeah. My guy uses them all the time. He said the fit on this was almost dead on perfect.
