Default Custom Lift off VFN Trans Am/Firehawk Hood
First of all...out of the box the hood fit great! Very little trimming was needed. I had the hood on the car for about a day sitting in the shop and decided I would cut it up and make it look more like the orginal Firehawk hood. Heres a few progress pics..

Here is our build thread for the Holley LS Fest..a few pictures in here of the hood as well.

Looks great. Any more pics of the fiberglassing process? How did you create that lower nostril shape and get it to line up so well?
