Cdc spoiler is on... I really like it helps tie the front in together. Going to finish blacking out the spoiler and the rearend this weekend along with gt 350 stripes, tribar pony emblems and a shortie antenna... and I think the exterior is done for awhile. Then its going to be a set of delete plates, 4.10's, steeda ultralites and a hurst shifter
. Sorry the car is really dirty its been freezing here

Yes theres two little copper "nozzles" that are under the cowl. I covered them up with some small black hose, did the job of covering them up well while allowing me to still adjust them. You can see them in the pictures Pike posted on page 1 of this thread.

So far no troubles with stability without the pins, before we painted it we took it up to 120 mph and a high speed run down the mountain near us
with no shake at all. I've also been on the highway trying to see any shake since its been painted and it seems pretty sturdy, I will keep my eye on it tho.
As for venting pressure from under the hood it sure does! You can feel the extra heat in the car from the opening in the hood and just standing outside the car while its idle you can feel the heat seaping out, also last night on my way home I noticed I could really hear my intake now when I push the gas down a bit![Worship](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/worship.gif)

Thanks
I've got my mind on 3 different hoods right now.Not sure which yet..Anyways,can someone give me a ballpark figure on prepping and painting costs and probably install since I dont want to risk getting new hood scratched on transport back home. i'm figuring about 650 for hood and delivery.

I was lucky the friend that painted my hood (and has to finish the rear end yet
) has his own paint booth and did mine for free. He owed me a favor and offered to do it, took him 15 hours on the hood I believe (had to redo the black cause of lint at one point). He said the top was easily painted because of the gelcoat but had to do some work on the underside. Shipping from steeda was truck freight I think it was around $110.

Finally got the blackout finished it turned out really well. Only exterior mods left are a set of CDC 1/4 louvers, rims, tires and lowering springs that go on in a week
Car is dirty in the shots (body guy lives down a dirt road lol) cant wash the car because its so cold here I hate winter
