LOOKS GOOD...When you getting the hood?

Not sure, i did stop by there today to take some bolts to him, the front grille and light bezels were off, the GN hood was on, im thinking hes going to fab up the header panel , but he was still thinking about it... Hope fully by saturday,

Ok guys its Offical, GN hood for sure, 😀 🙂 :shock:

I guess it was too much work to customize the header panel, and the easy way out was to cut the scoop and put on the OG stock hood, i told him to do that in the first place!!!!...Its looking real good, its tacked and i guess bondo/fiberglassed...which is ok...he told me it should take about 2-3 yrs before an signs of little cracks, and if i needed to redo, bring back to him at no charge...hes getting down....and im so happy to see the scoop on the hood already...stay tuned

Lookin good bruh! So he tack welded it and then filler? I had some AUdi door handles installed on a previous show car I built. The shop cut the holes, tack welded em in and then used fiberglass. Suuuuper strong and never gave me a single prob as far as cracking or signs of wear. Keep the pics coming fam!!

Ok. You are good to go then. The door handles were always being pulled on (for a year before I sold that old project car) Didnt have a single prob. Cant wait to see it done bruh. This is what I want done to mine as well.. Keep the pics/motivation coming fam!!
