The whole hood shakes a little at high speeds...its not much but its more than a stock hood.

Man your car looks awesome. That is exactly what I was looking for. I showed my wife and she said that is the hood you have to get. It is nice when you have the support of your better half. Who installed and painted your hood? I live in Madisonville. Would you recommend them?

Tell her my wife liked that one the best and is the one who paid for the hood!! I had a guy close to me paint it...nothing special and the price was average. I wouldm't drive all that way for him to do it. I just went from body shop to body shop asking if they would paint it. As you know a lot of bodyshops here now are so busy with the added wrecks they wouldnt do it...only ins claims. So it might take a few tries.

Great wife, now if I can get mine to pay for my hood. Thanks for the input. I will look around in my area and see if I can find someone. Was it easy to line up the new hood? You said you had helped. Just wondering if I just get it painted and then put it on myself may save a few bucks.

Well on the lineing up part I thought it went on easy and fast. But now looking at it more I might need to do some more adjusting. I dont think its hard but you will need another set of hands if not 2. There is only 4 bolts holding the hood on and 2 screws that hold the latch part so it not dificult.
