Got my hood......





I got my hood about a week ago....just havent had ant time to post pics. I think its gonna look pretty boss when I get the nose painted and all.
Do yourselves a favor..and watch out for elderly ladies on the road....that way you wont need to get a new hood and have your nose clip repainted

Nice! I love that hood.. I just wish it would be a little more narrow. How did it fit?

Fit no problem.....I just gotta move the pass side fender out a little, Other than that, it bolted right on.

1 question for ya...If you dont mind me askin....where did you get your Ravin cat back system from?? Im looking all over the place for a dealer. Right now, Im only interested in prices but Im really leaning towards a stainless system like Borla or Ravin.

Yeah I replied to your post in the exhaust forum. Midas sells the Ravin system. I like it a lot and would definitely recommend it.

I got it from Thunder Racing. THe cost was 459.00$. I got the shipping free cause the 1st one that showed up at my house was damaged. In order for me to get it to fit right, I gotta move the fender out a little. The fenders and other body panels elongated holes so that you can move them a little to get panels to align right.
