that's a stand up thing for him to do I've wanted to get a hood for some time but college keeps the money situation on the rocks (no scholarships ) and i almost got my hands on a used ss hood last summer but it fell through anyway enough of my rambling

Thanks Rex

and Congrats to the Winner

Agreed. I will ship you my hood for free + shipping if I win. Now you have two chances to win!

I sent you an Email Rex to enter this raffle, my car needs a new hood because the underside corners are starting to rot out and it has a really nice ding on the front edge which is currently being hidden by the bra.
I would also say congrats to whomever wins this hood.
Here is a pic of the front of my car with the bra thats hiding the bad parts

thanks,
Travis
