Pictures of a Ram Air II hood...

Well, y'all have been asking for it so here they are. I just ordered this hood and it should be here next week, on my car by the following weekend. Anyways without further ado... (By the way I hope the owner doesn't mind me posting these! )




I'll post some more of mine when I get it done... WooHooHoo!

Humm... I don't like it on the 91/92 Syle nose. I want to see it on a 85-90 TA or basemodel w/ GFX. This might sway if I buy a ASCD Ram Air or the US Body one.
Does anyone else notice it doesn't seem to fit very well in front?
Later,
RS

In all fairness the owner said that he had it adjusted perfectly prior to taking it in for paint. Apparently they took the hood off to shoot it, then they baked the car and hood. When it went back on there was a slight "straightening" of the natural curvature of the hood. He was, needless to say very upset. He thinks that he can get it to work without too much trouble though, which is good. I'll have this on my 1988 Trans Am by next weekend and will post more pictures of it (with the different nose cone) when I do.

From www.usbody.com total cost will come in the neighborhood of $620'ish. Shipping will depend on fuel surcharges and such.
