Tony, that's the same red Formula I sent you the video of a long time ago when I told you I wanted that custom hood. Do you still have the video? Maybe you can post it here.

This question is for Bob (1BadBird), I was wondering what size tires you got in the back? On the picture they look like they are 315's because it seems that they are sticking out a bit. I was just wondering since I plan on installing 315's on my car also.

Yep they are 17x11s with 315s. They are flush with the inner fender lip.

Can somebody photoshop the red one Tony posted? I love the hood...but would like to change one thing. I would like to see it with two small scoops instead of four...kinda like the raptor hood. That way....it looks like the cowl is coming down in the front like it should.

btw...PSJ...I like where you're going with the hood. I'm sure once it gets drawn out it will look badass <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Hey 1 BAD BIRD, I was just wondering if you can tell me what brand of wheels are those and how much did they cost you? I have been looking for a nice pair of rims for a long time and those look real nice. Also, would u know if them make them in 18?

Thanks

What kind of rims are these? They look like the Torque Thrust II's but they look chrome and the TT II's (I thought) only came in polished. Does anyone know if I can the TT II's in chrome of if I can buy them unfinished and have them chromed so that the price after all said and done won't be outrageous. TIA- Mike W.

They are American Racing Torque Thrust IIs. 17x11 in the rear and 17x9.5 up front. Yes they do make them in 18s <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Thinking of 18x10.5 myself I got them at http://www.wheelsforless.com for $1050 shipped <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
