Default Sneak Peek! Car goes into body shop tonight!




Mu-****** Booyah! VFN 3 Inch SS! Love it.

Going into the shop today to fix the damaged fender and bumper. The stock SS hood was damaged, but will be repaired. Couldn't pass up a golden opportunity for this hood.

Thanks for lookin!

Yeah. I hit some ice and slid into the back of a truck and clipped the hitch. I would have been alright if the dumb bitch didn't run the red light. Her insurance bought the hood

The zr1's are just on for winter, TTII's back on in the spring!

I'll also be putting my ram air badges back onto the side of this hood scoop, like my stock hood had. I opted not to fix the SLP hood because of how much it would cost. I'll put it in storage and fix it later.

It's the best of both worlds. It looks like a sunoco on the side, but has the mean looks of the SS from the front.

Once it gets back from the body shop I'm going to detail it and load it up with all the goodies so I can do a photo shoot. So if we're going by the body shop's estimated time, we're looking at a week

I hear that. It's the first step in a chain of events to get the car where it needs to be. This summer should be big for my engine.

The air box fits under the opening of the hood perfectly. No modifications are needed at all.

I'll go take some pics in a bit.
