which quickly lead to this:

overall im quite happy except the shipping company must have been a little rough on it because the gell coat on the one corner is cracked :mad2::

this material in the openings look familiar?

Looks good!
On a side note, I see NO reason why that cant be shipped Fed Ex or UPS.

All that money to ship it and I see ZERO reinforcements or protectors in the corners.
Was the hood just loose in the box?

I'm really interested in this as well. I've never seriously considered a hood scoop, or power bulge, or whathaveyou, but this one has me intrigued. Decent looks, a decent price, and I don't have to b!tch up the stock hood.

That hood wasn't packed properly.
Make sure you report the damage, it shouldn't be acceptable

It looks good, less the damage. Pics will be nice when installed. Good luck

Also, is it shipped a flat color or can you choose if it's painted or not? Looks sweet.

Get rid of the cheesy stuff in the holes, get some real Stainless grill material or square it off and do it with the stainless.. The hood looks great, cant wait to see it..

Looks awesome. Not a bad price considering a replacement hood retails for a similar price.

Very tempting!!!

I agree, squared off would look better.



Hood looks really good, but due to the school's slow mo internet, ill have to look at the pictures when i get home, only saw 2.

Is the hood just smoothed on, or does it really extract heat? :confused:
