It took us about 5 hours to do. We took our time cause when cutting a hole in the hood you really only have one shot at it and measurments need to be dead on. My dads done one before so he has experience doing it. For someone who hasnt done one before i would say at the max 8 hours. Depends on skill level of coarse, but remeber its better to take your time and do a good job.

ive been drooling over the shaker kit myself for some time now.when I get some bills off of me Im going to order the CDC kit and I cannot wait. Looks good great job, you should photoshop your car b4 the shaker and after side by side, also some pics under the hood would be nice!

I am in the exact same boat Wicker, I am pushing to get the shaker as soon as possible. (probably won't be until the beginning of the year). The more and more I look at it, the more I want it.

Thanks guys! Let me tell ya it is worth every penny. I will definitely get those pics, good idea. Also you really cant tell that its a v6 when you open up the hood. Since if covers up the engine and all, it looks nice. Ill be sure to post pics.
