Actually, I think that's the one with the burnout in the street with the "Trilogy" whine. Ditch the rims and grille, and it would be awesome.

The color is not bad, and I even like the hood scoop, but that grille and those "dubs" gotta go.
Where the hell did "dubs" come from.

I think if the grill didn't have the chrome trim it might look alright.
I hope somebody steals those "dubs" and he's forced to put the stock rims back on.

Unbelievable, this clown gets a nice hood, when he probably has nothing under it, and here we are, killing ourselves trying to find a vendor to make us one! Somone should email him and ask who made it.

I dont remember that one having a hood scoop, plus that one was off the ground more. This one looks to have been lowered.
The hood is ok, the rims are crap, is that repaint or just a light effect on a DTR?

I think the thing is pretty *****in the way it is. Best "red" MM I've seen, why does everyone have to be so similar, he wanted to stand out from the rest of of us as far as the wheels go. They have an interesting design and I think they fill the wheel wells nicely.

DUB? They spelled "dumb" wrong. Who ever does that to a vehicle needs to re-evaluate their idea of good taste.

I find that paint and wheels not so very attractive, but to each his/her own...I mean I think a "Cobra" emblem on an iconic Marauder is dumb! Kinda like puting an oldsmobile rocket ship on a Chevelle or a GTO. At least his thought is somewhat "original" if not totally over the top.

It's a Clown !
The lower part of the bumper colored in (or is something mounted there?), makes it look like a clown's mouth. The headlights are like dark eyes, the grill a red nose, and the rest like red hair !

guys i can tell u how the hood was made. You see you have an OEM hood with a scoop that has been put together and a little bit of body filler to get the lines right, but i doubt that this was done the right way and they made a hood with the scoop built in. I made a small replica hood to put my production number on it and it took for ever to get the lines right on that 3'x3' hood. Kinda having problems painting MARAUDER on it to match the rear bumber text. A good body shop could make a scoop that would be made close to correct or get someone to make a fiber glass mold that way you could make alot of them and have a lighter weight hood. If you want a scoop go with the glass!!!

Just wanted to let anybody know that was curious that the hood was made by a collision shop in Detroit called De-Tech auto collision but they want like $2000 :eek: for it painted any color you want, rediculous I know.
justbob
04-13-2009, 07:18 AM
You can have any scoop you want that is close to the angle of our hoods, i'm proof of that.
For me, i just used one from my last project car that has been collecting dust for ten years in my shed, it was a perfect fit. However i'm not dumb enough to molest the original hood, so a $60 cop car hood from the junk yard did me good.
Use you imagination, most anything will "work". The next one i do i want to actually bend my own metal and mig it down, i am much better with a welder than fiberglass.
