Hope you've got the power to back up that hood! I'd paint it pewter.

Bringing this back from the dead. Did you ever get it painted up OP? Also, how was the fitment? This one appears to be the "non sloped" hood; did you have any thoughts of doing the sloped hood?

According to this thread he tried selling the hood (still unpainted) in '09.
https://ls1tech.com/forums/lsx-parts...-ws6-hood.html

According to his sig in that thread, the TA is long gone.
I couldn't find his Fquick page though to confirm/find more pics.

OP also hasn't logged in since 2013, so I doubt he'll be back to respond to this thread. lol.

Yeah, should have done the leg work to see if he's still around. I like the hood, and have pondered gettine one myself, but was trying to figure out how well people like them over the OE WS6 hood. I think they look killer, and if painted right, should look just as good as the OE WS6 hood. The fitment seems to be good.

Too bad you aren't closer to ohio, I am selling mine to get the extended liftoff version. Fitment is very nice right out of the box.

Which one do you have? 4" non sloped, or 4" sloped? Wish you were closer too.
