Good design Jim....not bad.
I like the emulation of the side cove lines...interesting idea.

Although many consider this rice....I would be very tempted not to prime and paint the hood; install it with exposed cf.

3 Q's, please...

1) will it clear the Magnusson supercharger,

2) what's to keep water from running in all over the engine--can't tell from the pix,

3) since a design like this clearly isn't stock, why not just dispense with any vestige of the "butt-crease" all together?

Yes, we need pictures installed. I'm having a hard time visualizing how those "large" forward-facing holes are going to "play." Not staight enough to stick lights or something in. Again, we need to see a "finished" install.

Thanks in advance. :yesnod:

How hard is it to put on the hood. I could have mine on as soon as I get it if I can do it with out screwing it up. Still have to go to the body shop for the TIGER SHARK nose :D
