Default Post your WsQ **** here!

Since so many of us have ordered Q's hood I thought igo ahead and make a place for us to ahare pictures of what we did with his design.

Ill start with some crappy cell phone pics as a place holder till my car goes to paint here in a few weeks. Unless I have a major change of heart before the paint is ordered this bird is going hok black with the lavender dry pearl overlay and black accents.


I know for sure ones going red.... another pewter, most seem to be going black. Are there any other adventurous souls out there that are trying something unique with their paint?

Got mine... this thing is sick looking, the cowls are much higher... the fit
decent, it will need some tweaking but overall it was easy to put on, I did have to use spacers on the hood latch and elongate the hinge hoes about 1/4" this thing is crazy lite.. probably 15 lbs...and the underside is nicely finished...

yo Anticop, fitment will be fine after some adjustments so don't worry about that. It kind of sucks how this hood doesn't catch water though..I didn't know that until now.

Im not worried about fitment, I do have to replace a bracket that holds together the clip to fender joint. It is on order. once i do that i should be good... the water isnt a problem, its no worse than a de-baffled WS6 hood... unless you have an open box like the Volant for K&N open filters...

Soooo hot, want to touch the hood.
That is sexy, on my to do list, somewhere after about 2390472 other things. To bad I just ordered $450 in lights a new shifter and custom boot, or I'd jump all over this

Good buy, good video Anticop

Thanks For Posting The Video Of Your Wsq Hood, Its Great to see one on a red car finally, There are a few points brought up in the video that we wanted to correct though so there is no confusion, Such As:
The Front Latch Shouldn't need the washers to build it up, instead we recommend adjusting your latch catch upwards as in this illustration below,


Next We want to mention the secondary safety latch, The Wsq Is Several inches shorter than a stock hood around the nostril so the length of the safety latch is actually too long, it does not need to be bent, rather the extra portion should be cut like in the illustration below,


Here is our full install sheet pictured below

Jeanie, I will remove my video and redo it to correct my mistakes. I was in a hurry to get it on and didnt take my usual "stop and think about this" time before I installed it. That was my bad. I am going to fix this and use your information to make it fit right. thanks for the reply. Like I said before, you guys really have your **** together... Thanks again for a great hood.
