I believe he makes one that is a bolt on too. Just doesn't go up to the windshield. I believe the prices are the same, but Stenod will confirm the price when you place an order.

I don't have any pictures of it mounted. Generally you have to trim the top lip of the tail lights so that it's a flush surface all the way around. Then you can dzus it to the lights with 4 dzus's. The deck lid will close over the top. Since the carbon is flexible, you can adjust the height. However, what Joe Van O said during some testing was that the car was stable to 200 (Mike Yedgarian's yellow firebird) with the wing at it's lowest height.
I hope that helps.

Plan on shipping costing a bit because they consider it something far larger than a pallet and nail you on the trucking space. Depending on where it's going shipping may vary and sometimes cost as much as the hood itself. Plan on a few hundred bucks in shipping fee's unless you can arrange a cheaper option through someone that ships a hell of a lot more than Stenod does on a daily basis.

The cage fits in a box that I believe they have no problem with. The problem with the hood is it comes in a larger container and from time to time the fork lift drivers like to stab the shipping container right through the side. That makes for an exceptionally well received delivery on occasion.
As far as the dash, I'm not aware of a installed picture. The only one I've seen was on VFN's website for their dash (which looks virtually the same). You might also find one for Dave Underwood's car too. IMO the dash looks like crap compared to a gutted stock one anyway and the weight trade off isn't enough for me to give a rip about the minor difference over how crappy they look no matter how much paint you coat them with. That's just my opinion though. lol

I've seen a VFn one.... if it looks like that then nevermind, because I agree with ya on that one.

any pics of the bolt on hood for the ws6? I really wouldn't like the pin on hood as they are a pain to have if you are by yourself.
See if you can get some pics from inside the car as well. Ready and willing to pull the trigger soon.

Just wondering, but what are the advantages of running a Van O hood/dash over something like VFN's which is considerably cheaper? I know he makes each one as they're ordered, which probably means by hand, but I don't believe they weigh any less? Just curious. Glad to see someone's carrying his stuff now because he was kinda difficult to deal with.
One more question, do the front bumpers come in LS1 & LT1 styles?

This thread came up on my phone when I was looking around to see if any of his parts were floating around. And yes he is still making hoods and parts. Really nice stuff
