I think you might have it backwards. The LT1 style does not have the ripples over the headlights like the LS1 hoods. But I get what you're saying. It's not for sale btw.... If you want a VFN hood, you're looking at about a 6+ week wait from VFN.

LOL,,, not a chance man. I've wanted this hood for years. This one had already been sitting on my car for a month waiting for paint before you posted that vid. VFN hoods are built-to-order. Their lead time is about 6+ weeks this time of year which means I placed my order at the beginning of January. Nice try though....

Charlie, nice looking shift handle. Kinda looks like the original Integra Type "R" handles except a bit longer. I've always like the Type R handles btw. My friend used to have an original Type R Integra back in the day.

Thanks buddy. I'm just hoping it doesn't put the rest of the paint on the car to shame lol... Might have to do some color sanding/buffing on the rest of the car to bring it up to par lol.... BTW, I won't need your truck tonight. Tim and I are going to transport the parts with his truck and the Tahoe.

That works. I forgot Angii prefers to use the truck on Friday afternoons, but she could have made do with the Tahoe. I was also thinking that if need be I think the hood would have fit into our Tahoe, but it is all a mute point.

okay so i'm not 100% in love with it. not digging the color, and it's too tall. i'm gonna shorten it up a bit, texture it with the glass bead blaster, and do it matte black. possibly a couple machined groves in the lower half... we'll see!

sooo here's the newest rendition lol

and i didn't like the way the B&M ripper has the rubber o rings that make the shifts "softer"...... sooo i took some chromoly tube, fit two pieces together, pressed one into the shifter, and TIG'd the other one inside the other, then drilled and tapped it for set screws, now it's SOLID!! if i miss a gear now.... it's because i'm driving like a woman!! not the cars fault lol i'm gonna paint the **** black shortly.
