Default New hood latch cover UPDATE
After working on one of the prototypes that Throttle junkie was working on. After some triming and bending I have a final. However I'm working on finishing the edges. I made a template just need to cut them out.

I was set on making it white but the black blends so nice since I've also repainted all the brackets black.

Oh and I did remove the window washer res tank. Haven't used it in 4yrs anyway.

Before and after...

I don't care for the battery cover or fuse cover, but I like this cover. Looks good!

Look good

Weight!? Dude it's like a few Ounces...Plus I did pull out the res tank.

Thanks guys.

I'm planning on making one for my SS! Damn, there's so much room/wasted space in the Camaro.
