Very nice! I think the hood looks so good in Black because the color hides the vents, so it is subtle. That may be the cleanest black FD I have ever seen! Great job, and post more pics when you get them!

Is that the C-west front bumper. I don't remember it having the lip like that one. If that isn't it...what the hell is it. I love it. Where can I find one, and how much?

oh the hood does sit a little higher in the middle but it has dips on either side that makes it look more drastic then it is, i had to cut away for the front bumper, a fiberglass reinforcement behind it. for the 99 spec lights.

it jsut had a lot of rought edges, i had to test fit it many times adding a 1/4 inch here takin it off there, to get it to line up, plus drilling all the holes, was fun. the worst complaint was a bad fisish because after it had been painted once some bubbles started to appear wehre they had been in the glass and were now seeping out, so had to fix those, but, in the end it looks good
