Thats a nice hood there, which one is it? Post pics with the updates :D

My wife bought it for my christmas gift from e-bay but you can also get it from Cruzin Concepts. here is the link to the current ebay auction

I was nervous about the ebay thing but the body shop said it packaged better than any thing the normally get and it arrived in perfect condition.

I should get it back on Friday. I'll post pics when I can.

That's what I was going for. If you can find one, the non functional Shelby CS6 hood (same as the Hertz) is around $800 and the functional version for the Terlingua (taller over the engine) is around $1400. Those prices do not include shipping, another $150 to $200. This one is functional and was less than $500 shipped. The body shop said it was good quality so I am happy so far. I'm not having the washer nozzles put in and I don't want to use hood pins. If I find I have the dreaded hood shake, I want to use these http://www.wmsracing.com/wmsweb/hoodpins.html I'm just not sure how much that will stress the fiberglass.

Congrats!
Are the air vents open?
Look forward to seeing pics once the hood is painted and installed. =-)

very cool....look forward to seeing it finished and on the car.

good call on not reinstalling the washer spray nozzles in the hood.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who actually gets excited for tax season because it means I can buy more car parts!

I hope your body shop doesn't micromanage you a month out like mine did on my hood! :D

They pushed me back a week then we had a string of power outages so they could paint so it's like half their fault but good luck with yours anyway!!
