Looks good to me. Looks like your finishing a long project, now get in that thing and drive it like you stole it and enjoy all your hard work and $$ spent.

thanks guys i get hit or miss on the hood all the time. I actually made that hood I took the stock hood and shaved the vents on it with fiberglass, and took the cowl and pop riveted that on and molded it with fiberglass. Then we had to cut out a hole for the cowl.... The story goes on and on but i decided to try my luck all because glass tek was on back order and no one else had the hood..That i know of, Oh well
