No sir. Not if you have enough gelcoat...

For those that have to have these hoods, make sure you get a shop that specialise in custom work or better yet, a Corvette shop.
Those guys will correct all the f#ck ups via muchos dineros.

In the case of the Venom hood, someone needs to make a pin locking mechanism since Shelby won't sell theirs yet.
I have rigged a system on a friend of mine GT500 and it cost him big bucks for my labor.
I can't expect my regular customers to spend that kind of dough just for that.

The Venom hood is the best looking one IMO, the 68 style pins have a lot to do with it.
