Looks great, can I get a pic of how the heat extractor is finished if the screen matches the main inlet or not?
About how big is the height in the back?

Looks good, my car is black so it kinda already matched. Wish i could move my car to take some pics but its stationary for the next three months.
Was your hood damaged in the top corners at all? On the passenger side mine was chipped. It will have to be re-glassed and touched up to make it look good again.
Joe sent me a text saying that I wasn't the only to recieve a hood with damage in this area and that he thinks someone did it on purpose.
The crappy thing is the package looked perfect no rips, or signs of damage when i picked it up. When I cut all the plastic off thats when we found the damage. The terminal wont do anything unless you make the claim before you sign for it.

My passenger corner doesn't look to bad, it looks to be a easy fix. The drivers corner is a different story. It was slammed so hard that it actually buckled the corner up. Nice crack all the way through it.
I went and had some body shops look at it and they told me it was junk. That it would cost more to fix it than for me t.o just buy a new one. 
On a side not though, one of the shops I had look at it told me it was one of the best hoods they had seen in awhile. They asked me if I did any adjusting to it, and I said no I haven't had time to mess with it that I just bolted it on there. They were in awe over it lol.

Anybody know if Roger is making the original Superhawk hood? It was very close to the Firehawk hood but followed the contours of the stock front bumper cover without trimming.
The bigger-scooped Superhawk hood is cool, but I like the more subtle look of the older version myself.

No, this hood fits fine on a stock Firebird, Formula or Trans Am.
A genuine Firehawk hood required the bumper to be trimmed, so if you have a Firehawk and want this hood, it will have a gap.

I'd really like his number as well. The superhawk hood has been my favorite hood for these cars for years, I'd like to get one in a few months.
Unfortunately the transmission takes priority at the moment.
