It looks fine really. Tint is sticking to the dotmatrix really well still.

Glad we were able to swap or those purdy cobra ones would have had the same fate as these lol.

Quality of the hood is great if you ask me but this is my first hood ever. The paint guy said he thought it was great quality......

Any vibrations or lift of the hood at high speed......I noticed you did not install any hood pins?? I looks cleaner, but I was wondering about any problems.

I am going to install pins...I like the look of them and I would like to be safe. It does move and stuff at high speeds (70ish and up havent gone past upper80's) and if there is a cross wind it moves more. I dont know if it is in danger of coming off or anything or if the pins would even stop it from moving...but I would rather be safe and I like the look.

Maybe the can be painted car color so they dont stand out if you dont relly like them.

No.......I think they will look good. It will blend in with the Black/Chrome theme your car already has!

Hood looks good man. Does your flex a little over 50mph? Mine does but I think it's due to the heat. Looks SWEET!!!

Car looks awsome. Hate to sidetrack the thread a bit, but whadya think of that Bassani catted X with the FRPP's? I love my FRPP's, but a little louder wouldn't hurt and increased flow is nice.

How much louder is it with the X? Any added drone?

Keep up the good work.

I would definetly keep mine chrome to go with the rest of the car for sure!!!

Mine moves some but its more like 70 when I can really see it.

I have an o/r H not an X. I have heard a catted X and I dont like the rasp...the H sounds much better I think. And taking off the cats makes it MUCH louder but I LOVE it!!!
