Default Finaly....

The hood is on.....
It just got rained on so the car is wet, i'll take some more latter after its had a bath.

The hood still needs to be fitted, adjusted and buffed, which will happen this comming weekend.

Looks awesome. When I saw the first picture I was reminded of the Dick Harrell hood. I think the black really highlights the cowl and gives you the option to add decals or just leave it as is. Very sweet.
