The cost of hood(200-500) vs the cost of moving the rad support...well say 15 bucks in metal to be safe. Not worth it in my book. I'm just trying to get some green parts back on my car. When you guys see my car you will understand, I dunno what the opposite of a trailer queen is but thats what my car is gonna become. Id just like to have a matching front end again. lol

Id invest in a nice fiberglass cowl. You get the benefit of weight reduction and the space for ur lid. Just my 2 cents

then what id do is put a stock air box Type setup on the car even an Ebay cold air for 15 bux works well. and then wen you can save for all the right pieces of the puzzle. install the lid if you so desire. thats my suggestion.

Your telling me, once the hood gets put on it will look alot better to. Still need to get some touch up paint and comver some scratches but its not half as bad as it was. Just need to get the new wheels transfered over and will look alot better to I think.

Random question, where did people get their helmets and or how much did you pay for them.

I might not need one the first time at the track but, when i put 555rs on Id think ill break 14s. Id prefer to have one just in case so I don't get one run and then cant run again lol

Thanks in advance!
