Good deal Chris. Glad you are doing it yourself. I find that those people who tune their own cars are happiest in long run. That way you know everything about your car inside and out and know what it takes to perform in every situation.

P0332 is low circuit. Prolly gonna be the harness. I pinched mine a long time ago when I installed my LS6 intake and got that code. I cut the wire where it was damaged and spliced it then taped it down. Worked up until here recently. Now im getting the coe again so I'm gonna be ordering a new harness and replacing sensors since I'm already there.

Pulled the trigger on my hood. Goin with the Ultra Z from True Fiber with free shipping!!

Here's an idea of what it'll look like. The lighting is wrong cause anybody that has seen NBM in the sun knows how it pops. Mine is no exception cause it's fairly clean for its age and still pops real good. Just need to hide that ugly scratch on the rear bumper now.



It's already ordered, so like or dislike it's about to happen. It's different for the area seeing how most you see are either SS or cowl hoods.

You'll be one of a kind for the Shreveport area.....as far as I know.

Wonder how it would look with some sort of stripe on either the top or the side of the scoop. Hmmmmmm

I've been considering some type of ghosting, but unsure of what just yet. I'm not much on the stripes on these cars unless it's a hardtop. I'm also not a flashy person which is why my car doesn't have very much bling. I like simple and subtle hints of things. My wheels are polished, but will most likely go back with chrome and my emblems are polished stainless. Other than that it's pretty simple. I do like flames and women (hence the nickname of my car) just not sure what I wanna do just yet, so for now it'll most likely just get painted to match.
