ok its been only 6 days since i ordered the hood, and i just called them to check how the progress is going and they said it should get shipped out at the end of this week or early next week. I think that is pretty quik if you ask me GREAT SERVICE but ill let you guys know when it gets here...

Looks nice.

Anyone have pics of it actually on a car?? Looks similar to the stock WS6 hood only with a higher cowl.

only reason i didnt go with the bolt on, is bc that hood weighs 25 lbs and the pin on weighs 13lbs and after i take off the brackets and what not i will have lost 50lbs which is a hell of a good weight loss..

They have a picture on the catalog page of one, which also has the WW front piece:

They have one matching car paint, but it's the race version that goes to the hood:
