Let's see your aftermarket hood
#170
Just arrived. Do not sign any papers until you check it. Have a soft drink ready for the driver. lol.
Here are some pictures taken while its being painted at the body shop. It was sanded, primed, sealed, and painted four times due to workmanship of the hood.

I drilled a 1/2 inch hole in the rain pans and put a hose in it to drain rain water. I will put them in the trunk and have them ready in case of rain. I didn't want to defeat the purpose of the louvers releasing the heat. Thanks everyone.![Thumb](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb.gif)

I should have never looked through this thread as not sure how much longer I can put off doing my GT500 conversion! descisions, decisions .... wheels/tires (plus a couple suspension things) or this!

I think the only ones that stick out further than stock are the Cervinis B2, B9 and M1 hoods and the old Fang Mystery 7 / 8 hoods.
My hood sticks out nearly 3 inches.

I just checked out your link, your car is fantastic, I remember talking to that guy on the phone right after he broke away from fang. Ducktail and chin would round out your car for sure.
The CDC ducktail goes right over the brakelight you hate. You relocate it to the back window, cant see it at all, of course you can when you hit the brakes though

I am glad I finally went with the aluminum, to many issues with the fiberglass for me. I had 2 trufibers before this one
