4 months waiting was worth it
Friday, October 17, 2008 9:48 PM
Crappy cell phone pic...

I ordered this on June 25... delay after delay from Vis... just when I was getting ready to check with another vendor, the freight company called on Wednesday Best part, no damage whatsoever. So I get to sport the new hood for a couple weeks before I take it off for winter



I need to put the pop rivet in the driver's turn signal, that's why its kinda off-kilter

clean your rims, paint your handles and mirrors, and get some tints

This time of year means lots of rain, plus 1/2 mile long gravel driveway = I wash the car, it gets dirty the next trip out to work.

I don't like painted handles or tint.

* 1/4 mile driveway. I miss my edit button

And so I don't get the "pics or its not true" routine (driveway circled in red):

Those 2 parts cars in the background are straight body 1970 Monte Carlos. The parts alone if I go to sell them are worth more than your car. The trailer is used to move firewood.

looks pretty good, but that dent in the 1/4 panel looks painful. sucks getting the hood just before the end of the season, but at least you got it.

Hood looks good, but get on painting the front bumper- huge pet peeve of mine (not that it matters much)

Personally I think I would have fixed the dent before buying a hood, but that's just me I guess. The hood looks good but just make sure you baby it, VIS's resin will turn yellow in no time if left in the sun.

Looks good. Can't wait to see your car painted and all together. I'm sure you can't either.

This place could use a good purging of people like you who feel the need to enter a thread and make a useless post, then act like a 12 year old when called on it.

The dent is getting fixed in the spring when the kit goes on (as is the front bumper being painted)

im curious, just because you run a 14 second quarter with your turbo cav, do you feel the need to be such a dick? or does it just come naturally?
