I had this same crap from Cervini's when I ordered my cowl hood. It took them a month to get the hood to me from the date I ordered. They said that the packing material for the hood was on back order....twice. It was annoying, but in the end I got a great product. I just wished that they would be more upfront with actual shipment times and back ordered parts that cause delays.

hey I noticed you're going to shave your radio antenna from the hood, what is your plan with the radio system? Find another spot for the radio antenna to be put in? The reason why I ask because i do not like my long (stock) radio antenna...
Hope everything is going smooth with your parts.

Parts came in, put her in the shop that weekend. Now shes out of the shop.
Few things to note.
The hood pins look great but are compressing the two pieces of fiberglass that make the hood. I am working on a solution that evolves cutting pieces of rubber to fill in the gap. It seems to be working. I had the body shop mount them in the hood and it looks like the right one is over lapping where the ram air ducting is going to go. I hope to work on that this week and get this project completed.
On the tonneau cover – the 3rd piece was a pain at first to get buttoned. After the paint it became impossible. It looked like the buttons were mounted just a little off. So I removed the buttons drilled a hole large enough to hold the head of a 5m bolt that had a length long enough to go through both pieces. I then used rubber epoxy (made by Locktight ) to turn it into a stud. Now it slides on easer and putting the tonneau cover is no were near as frustrating.
Here are some camera phone pics I took this weekend. I still have detailed pics of points of interest to load off my camera.
