Put my new wheels and tires on during the middle of the week (OE Wheels GT4's, staggered 18x9/18x10 w/ Goodyear F1 Supercars, 255/45-18 front, 285/40-18 rear) and test fitted my new hood today (Shelby Super Snake). Still have to do the hoodpins and touch up minor inperfections in the hood, but though I'd snap a few pics (while waiting for my sis after giving her a lift to the supermarket):

 

Lookin good!!

 

+1 ditto. one of a kind. looks great

 

Sweet!!

 

Oh btw Luke, I'm likin the black wheels on the tungsten! I'm kinda biased though I suppose ha

 

Can't wait to see it after you paint the hood. I'm not too crazy about the emblem in the middle of the grille though but that's just my opinion.

 

Yeah, that was just playing around. It's not likely to stay

 

Looks good Paul - for some reason I thought you had that hood already, what did you have on it before?

 

I messed around with an IPP hood which was sort of similar last year, but I found too many quality problems with it to make it worthwhile using, so I saved and popped for an actual Shelby Supersnake hood.

Here's a couple more shots from today, with a less crappy background:

 

Did this in Photoshop. The color is not 100%

 

Pretty darn close though, Thanks Deric!!!

 

looks awesome, torch! i don't think i've seen a sweeter lookin vert!

 

Hey torch what kinda springs you runnin?

 

Steeda Ultralites

 

Torch, how do you have taht front plate mounted? cops are always messin with me about no front plate on mine, but never have given me a ticket... yet....

 

Looks really, really good.

 

It's the bracket from these guys: http://www.trailerrebuilders.com/services

Does a nice low key job, removes easily with just two bolts for shows, etc and is made from heavy gauge stainless, so it sort of works as a protective skid plate for the front splitter.

 

What hood did you have before the GT500 bumper? Did you sell it?

 

This one (factory hood w/ CDC scoop):



Have not put it up for sale yet.
