Hood pics
The hood was originally made by "Breathless Performance" but is now manufactured and sold by Ecklers. It is a "Heat Extractor" style hood and the scoops are functional. The quality, fit and finish was excellent and would recommend it to anyone interested (just dont copy my paint scheme
)Thanks to everyone for the compliments.

Yes, it certainly is possible to mod a car and still look for the latest and greatest thing to add to it. It may take many years for you to come to the conclusion that it will have to stop sometime. Only you can make a decision like that.
So.... what are you going to do to it next?

Here is a pic of my work in progress... this pic was taken a few years ago.. the car has taken on some new performance mods since then..
