Thanks. I agree. It has nice lines. I'm not a big fan of the Cervini's hood. Something about that line on the front edge makes it not look right. Like it's a "cowl bolt on".

Any views from the front??

I know they recommend hood pins... any plans on installing some?? This is one of several reasons why I avoided a fiberglass hood. I wish someone made a hood like this out of aluminum like the Foose.

Hood looks great. It's got a nice, subtle rise. I wouldn't touch it with anything but mild soapy water and a soft cloth for the recommended 6 weeks. Wax will likely keep it from curing properly and polishing uncured paint is a good way give yourself permanent swirl marks. Just be patient and wait for it to cure.

Thanks for the tips. Last thing I want to do is mess it up because I'm being too impatient.
