I'll definitely be looking into that
Post pics once its painted/mounted. A how-to would be nice as well.

lol.. no really, she did pick it out.. I acually hoped she would change her mind so I wouldn't have to put it on and paint, I know how picky I can be, and probaly would want to mold it to have it look right.. trust me I am looking forward to seeing it on, but not doing the work...

Finally had a chance to put the scoop on, I didn't want to just throw it on, the appearence molded to the hood looks much better.. it's not ready for paint, I need to go over it again and check for imperfections, i wanted to post these pictures so some of you can see what this scoop looks like when it's done this way.. I probaly wont get around to finish it for a few more weeks, I got a few projects going on and Im sneeked this one in.. but when it's painted I'll post up the pics..

ya sooo much better then just stuck on good call.

see what i mean.

looks way better then the stuck on one. The extra work surely paid off. very nice

 

[madvette74]

thanks guys...
it is a real pain doing it, I hate doing bodywork.. I wouldn't suggest trying this if your new to doing this type of work.. you have contours to make even all the way around, and it can get boring, real quick... the wife cant wait till it's done.. me too in away..lol.

 

[MONMIX]

Fantastic.

I cant wait to see the grand finale

 

[best X]
