ok, so anyway, the brand name is "number one" and if you are gonna type "it sucks" or anything like that, please please, press and hold the ALT button, then press F4 before you type anything. thanx.
so i did a hood swap with a 7thgenner here in GA THANX ADRIENNE! any, i brought pics. the hood is popped but not unlatched. the trim piece IS NOT fitted on right now. i bought a new one tonight. i didn't feel like using the chrome one she had, cause hers is a sedan. so ill put on the trim piece thursday before i put on my exhaust. the hood is dirty. again i don't care. i got this bitch for free. i had to roll the fenders a little with spacers. and the winshield sprayers will go on thursday too. but it worked out fine. next up is the hood pins. i will be using the CF pads, with the lock key style. any thoughts? i likey. its LIGHT!!:rofl:
ok ok, pics.

I think a black trim piece would flow better with your grill... silver is going to break the lines up. Awesome find, though. I can't really tell if it needs it, but ou can use plastic polish on the resin coated carbon fiber to bring out the shine, thats what I do with my b pillars.

Niceee, you cant go wrong with free

gearbox 03-27-2006 09:28 PM

i think it looks fine, just keep it waxed or you'll hate it after a while.

MajinB 03-27-2006 09:41 PM

i refuse to black out the headlights. the silver painting on the headlights is perfect for my SSM

Nates02EX 03-28-2006 03:44 PM

looks good, do you have to get the pins for it? is it necessary? i had a fiberglass hood on one of my s-10 once and it was light and worked fine with the stock latch
