GM design engineers helped GMMG put those body kits together and they still had to work through some pretty tough challenges to get them to fit and work correctly. Don't hold your breath on ANYONE making copies. The design is owned by GM/GMMG, limited to those Dick Harrel Supercars.

I am currently workng on my 3" SS hood like VFN's but fully functional like OEM. The rear of the scoop will extend back to the windshield more as well.

and how much do you think it would cost for a body shop to do this?

I think there is a lot of work going to be involved to make it look right and symmetrical, a shop would probably charge a lot. My plan was to test this one for myself and then maybe pull off a few more to sell???

Will also add to the bottom portion (inside) of the scoop to split the air to both side with the new height of the scoop. Have the hood all marked up, looks like a PIA but will be worth if for me.

Not that i've seen. Looks like you still have to shell out the $$ for the valance. I his tips look good, but they dissapear from the rear view becuase there is no lip to them like the stock SLP ones.
