At USASM I traded my cowl hood for a ram air hood. When I got the hood I realized that it was not functional and well I figured it was time for some custom work. I took the hood to my buddy that works at the local body shop and this is what we came up with.
Before:
The cutting has begun:
Once its done there will be some SS speed grille mesh behind the cutouts to match the grille and bumper
I do have a couple of questions:
1. Now that that there will be air flowing into the engine compartment, should I pin the hood?
2. Should I paint it all body color or paint the cowl in a silver and two tone it?
Thanks everyone for your comments (good or bad)
Also a big thanks to Nick (djzub), Billy (thethein11), Mike (LilRedRininHood), and of course everyone that helped me fit the hood at the hotel.
