Default Hood chop

Been thinking about getting a Cervini's 2.5" cowl for a while now, and was wondering if someone could chop one on my car so that I can be certain.



Thanks guys!

Cervini doesn't have very good head-on pics of their cowl, heres my rendition.. Xeno might be able to do it better...

Go for it. You've got the power to back it up so it wouldn't look as weird as if I put it on my car.

valid point.. but that 2.5" looks dern good on yours though..

Yeah fiberglass. Cervini's offers to paint them for $350 which isn't a bad deal

I don't mind the stock hood but mine has the damn corrosion problem pretty bad, so it needs to go.
