Default cowl addition..

been wanting a cowl for sooo long, and i didnt want to run a dead giveaway GM steel one, so i decided to check out what my local car show had this morning. this is just a quick photoshop, plan on cutting a spare hood and fiberglassing it beneath. probably will paint black to match the trim, or red/maroon for the pinstriping and interior..

i was after a cervinis, but didnt win the auction.. anyway in Wi the roads are really rough, with rocks and crap all over, way too expensive for just a hood, and everyone has one, so why not make one a little out of the norm? hell, the damn shaker only cost me $10

the shaker was bolted on the air cleaner in the position its sitting on my car.
reversed it looks retarded, not saying that this doesnt look "special". to the haters, just sell me a used cowl instead of biching!
