Default New hood is on
Finally got the hood put on... Only ran into a few problems, but it is all better. Hood still needs a little bit of adjusting before it sits perfect. Enjoy.

Hood was painted alone, and I did not get it blended. Really, I could not tell the difference, and the painter said he was impressed with how well it matched. I would not worry about it, unless your paint is pretty bad.
