    I just cut in the fenders and hood today. I'll mount them tomorrow. This is a fiberglass hood that they did a horrible job finishing it on the underside. It seems I did more work on the under side of the hood then the whole car.... lol. The center was so bad I decided to use truck bed liner on it to hide all the raw fiberglass. If your wondering, the two things under the hood are my Aerocatch hood pin latches that I molded in flush on the top side. The 4 holes are for my hood scoop.

    Here is a link for the hood.... I got the g6219 one. It says Maverick in the left side, but says "Hood-flat-Comet" in the parts section.
