I like it! The underside looks really nice as well. Did they ship it to your house for free or to a terminal?

yep very nice quality over all. and it was shipped to a terminal. I was kinda pissed and emailed them that in the past they always mailed to a terminal for free, so I kinda felt like I was tricked.

but they emailed me a couple hours later and explained that now they charge like $60 to ship to a terminal, and a $20 boxing fee, so I was saving $80.

thanks. I haven't bought anything for the car since it went down, so I guess I was a little anxious, and bought this being spontaneous. but I don't regret it, the hood looks EPIC, good weight savings, much more room under the hood now, and should pull out a lot of heat too.

The hood is on my list now. It looks absolutely awesome!! Love the wider cowl- I have to get rid of my Saleen hood because of clearance issues with the Blow Thru Carb, and have been looking and trying to decide on what I want- Did that hood come in gloss black?? Looks frikin awesome on a vert!!

it did come black like that. from what I have read, a lot of people don't paint the hood, because they look great just how they come. they call it "gel coated black" idk.

read the features of the hood. but the hood being much WIDER, and designed to make more room under the hood then other hoods that are an inch taller is one of the major selling points for me.

compare the underside of it, to your hood.

I agree with ya too. If ya dont have the money then go find a cheap 302 too get her back on the road again, Spring will be here quicker than you think man. Put another 302 in it to thrash on while you decide on your next combo!!
