Check out the new hood. My wife ordered it for me while I was on a detachment (yes military). She looked through my car files and found my wishlist, I think she chose the perfect present! Woohoo!

 

Here's another, It is at the paint shop now!!

 

One last shot.

 

awesome! you have a pretty cool wife Its gonna look sharp once its all painted. When are they going to be done?

 

Nice hood man. Wish I had one. I have a friend who is in the Marines. He is bringing his 2002 Lightning home with him on Memorial Day. He has to go back over there...again. I for one appreciate you guys over there. It really hits when you know someone there. I should be one of them...

 

Yeah, she's cool, turns wrenches with me every now and then and even likes Metallica! I pick the hood up this Saturday, can't wait. I think for christmas I'll leave her a hint for some 17" Rims!

 

thats awesome bro, i need to leave my wishlist around everywhere, im going to make bilboards

 

any close up pics? what do you think about the fit and finish. i've done a few kits for imports and been thrilled with their work when compared to what i've worked with from other companies abound...

 

The hood was a perfect fit, only adjustment was to raise the latching mechanism. It also sits to the right slightly (1/8"), I have to push down on the side of the hood and it pops in against the rubber guides. I think it will settle into perfect position with time. If not, I'll try to ease it over by pushing on the hinges slightly. The finish is awesome, the only defect was a couple of pinholes on the edges of the hood. It was practically ready for paint when I received it.

 

nice hood. It looks great .

 

Dude, I need to send my wish-list to your wife, that's pretty sweet!!!

Note to self, find wife like that.

 

As I always say, "you just can't go wrong with that hood."

 

D----amn right.

NOTE to self: Make Camaro wishlist and place it where wife can find it... heheheheh

 

HEY IT LOOKS GREAT I'M JEALOUS.....
HOW MUCH WAS THAT BAD BOY ANYWAY...???

 

I just wish they made one for us birds

 

The cerivini cowl is by far the best hood for our cars.

 

very nice...prolly my most favorite hood right there

 

The hood was $399.00 plus $110.00 for shipping (ouch!) Shipping was so high because I live in WA. I should have it back with new paint tomorrow!

 

2" or 3"?

Looking to get a 3" for more room underneath, and if it comes white already, then great! (white car. )

Where did she buy it?

 

Its a 3 inch cowl

 

Sweet!! I need to find a girl like that.

 

Nice. I measured 4" to see where it was and it's almost too big. 3" sounds perfect.

IROC Magman....where did she get it?

 

She bought the Cervini 3" Cowl Induction Hood, PN 115 from www.Cervini.com, Phone number is 1-800-488-6057. One sweet hood and one sweet wife!!

 

AHHH don't paint it lol. Keep it white and have the project look like mine lol.

Mines been like this for like a year.

 

3'' is real good. I think 4'' would be alittle to much. I'm like 5' 10'' tall and sometimes the 3'' hinders my view quiet a bit. I'm used to it now though.

 

Great...the white color, is it just a basecoat that gets sanded and painted, or it is clearcoated paint? (My car is white )

3" looks perfect...enough so to allow me to use a normal aircleaner.

by the way...it's www.cervinis.com

Does she have any sisters


BTW, the car looks great, i have always liked that hood.

and in noticed your are in WA, if you get a chance, check out http://www.cascadecrew.org

 

Can't wait to see what it looks like painted up!

Here's mine...

 

ES87iroc - What color code is that blue? Looks sharp!

Dewey 316 - I'll look you guys up when I get back from my trip to Iraq, sometime in December I hope!

kd5boc - The instructions said to sand the "gelcoat" I believe the fiberglass itself is white with a clear coat or gelcoat sprayed on. Body work is not my gig, sorry I couldnt provide more info. If your car is white it should look fine.

 

Looks awesome! Makes me want to get a cowl hood for my RS.
