        Hood is halfway finished...I only did the two vents that are recessed...not the one sticking up or the roof. I will post pictured up later tonight when i get out of work. I still have body work to do...the hood is a little wavy from the welding but is easly fixed with a hammer, dolly and a skim coat of bondo. Should be done for the meet on the 9th.

            Here is the most up to date pic...still got some body work to do but the major work is done.... its not going to be functional because i didn't want to have to worry about water in the engine bay. But i will be making custom mesh to be layed over the back part and the metal behind it will be black, giving the apperance of a functional vent.

              I'm surprised that I like it. Good job.

              I think it would look swass with the raised vent in the middle. Are you still going to add that on?

                with that hood you should put a lip kit or sumtin on to...IMO cars w/ costom hoods and no lip kit = real ricey

                but its comin out nice

                                Looks good, but will it function.. or was it built to even function? I would have done the scoops the opposite way, maybe a little farther back, as air would come in the front, go around the engine/out the hood vents and under the car. I have been debating FUNCTIONING roof scoops for my car (as I will not have AC shortly, hell I dont like it anyways), same with the hood venting. If you did sucker scoops on the roof it would be pretty neat, like an offset one near the back low profile, just to get more air into the cabin when you have to roll windows up while doing excessive highway speeds. lol. Power to ya for making something new.
