Kevin thanks for all your effort getting me all the parts I needed.

Here are the first pics of body mods... the car is still in the body shop till tomorrow or Monday as needs buffing, polishing & cleaning still.

I think the Super Snake hood does it proud...

It Just Blows me away How Many Cars were Restyled with my Kits and in Different States and Countries. Gives me a Real sense of Satisfaction. Calls and Orders on the Nose Kit are on the Rise again and it Looks Like I will be Spending Some time Prepping an Order Due For Iceland This Weekend! No Rest for Mr. Retrofit! Gives me a Chance to Stretch the Legs in the 500 on my 1/2 Hour Drive to work! It's all good Though!

Have a Great Weekend!

KC

Thanks again for everything Kevin .
Looking good!

you can find the SS hood in the Shelby Performance Catalogue, which you can download with prices from their website.

Also, thanks to Kevin for the rear spoiler, pony emblems, and assistance on the front fascia!!
Hey dude, I REALLY like the bumper fully painted! I think I'm finally going to take the plunge this year and get it done, with the center section painted to match, and have the stripes run down the middle. Time to change up from the stock GT bumper with CDC chin. The bumper looks sweet the way you did it!!!

I had to wait around 4 weeks back in March, they told me the hoods went out as soon as they got them. But not being production ready that is BS.

I did get the prepped version and it not only looked well prepped but my body shop had little work, at least that is what they told me.

I spoke with SAI about the Super Snake hood a month ago. They said after their current batch of hoods was gone (some point in May), they were making some changes and switching to a composite material. Possibly that is what they meant by production ready.

Well I finely changed my front bumper cover. It only took me about an hour to pull the front end off, my first time. To do the mods and put the new one on only took about 2 hours. Still have to wire the fog lights and pick up some clips for the inner fender well. I haven't decided on the V6 emblem or just a GT up front or anything at all but NO Snakes. Here are a few pics. Thanks Kevin.

thanks, those black-out mods are being done as I write as the car is back in the body shop after it was attacked by a stone the size of a golf ball.
The car attracts so much attention, but this time round it was an F150 with a flat bed trailer piled up with rubble, he swerved in front of me doing about 65 on a dual lane highway, as soon as I saw the dust coming off I put my foot on the brake to create some distance, then I saw this stone just chasing me which had just fallen off of his trailer, it was bouncing towards me and what ever I tried to do it sort of followed me like a **** cruise missile and then "BAM" straight into the bumper directly onto the striping, dented and spider webbed.
Just 2 or so weeks after leaving the body shop in all her glory.

Oh yeah, got the guys number and my local cop who loved my car went and literally brought the guy to my house in the back of his squad car, he couldn't deny a thing because his trailer was still full of rubble without a cover and he also admitted that he was just trying to get a better view of the front of my car
