Ya i like that cluster too.
Thats a 4 1/2 cowl dose not look that big at all But it looks like i would get that too if it really is not that big. All the ones i see are like 3in and the look way big.

I got the cluster on EBay, it was supposed to be around $400, I got it for $100 brand new sealed up. It was a pretty good deal.
The hood is nowhere near where everyone thought it would be. When I was originally telling people which one I ordered they all said the same thing, "that's gonna be huge!" It's not as big as you would think. I have friends locally with cowls, one just got a 3" that turned out to be 2 1/2 from Cervinis and it's barely even noticable, it doesn't even really look like he has a cutom hood.
My stock hood was just the 99-02 v6 hood, the same as the GT hood, just no scoop.
My wheels are in the storage building behind my house. Lately I've been driving my car to the heliports to go out offshore and didn't want to waste my pretty wheels and tires on work trips so I slapped on the stock GT wheels. I even get better gas mileage since they aren't as wide. I'm going tomorrow to buy another set of wheels, some Termi's!
I got the bumper on EBay from Car Parts Wholesale, same place I got the fender and fogs and grille delete insert. My fender came in damaged and I have to destroy it, they'll credit me the cost of the fender, and when I order a new one and basicallyall I have to pay is shipping. It's nothing but INDIAns that seem to work for them, but all the stuff arrived in a few days. Just try not to buy sheet metal partsfrom them.

I plan on puting one of them on, just trying to clear of the final details of the parts I'll need to complete the job. I got the other one because I want to try to cut it up and make everything mount in a cool way on the other one, such as the aic and stuff.
