Looks like it fits pretty good. Will look great once it's painted

Looks real good man. Install and Hood looks to have been done with Top Notch Quality in mind. And I know Customer Service was right up there also. I'm sorry man... but dam.. I can't wait to go down to VFN to pick up and have my hood installed.

I think you really notice it more because of the color contrast. I think it will tone down a bit when it's painted.

looks amazing.

Nice! I will be getting a VFN cowl.... First is a 4" too high for driving around town? Not my DD, but I do drive it like on Power Tour type stuff... Second, any need to have hood pins? I have not to this point drag raced this car. Probably capable of low 11 seconds at ??? but not the reason I built of have this car. Primarily a drive to show and shine at 100+ish mph highway speeds.....

The guys at VFN said around 130 MPH+ you should install hood pins.
