Ha! I was just coming on here to write an update on the hood. Ok, well last week there was a small boo boo involving heat, and is being fixed right now, the next step is to keep the front vent open by glassing it, so I can start to stiffen the underbody of the hood again. its amazing how much a hood flexes by cutting just a few structure points in it. at this point and time Alex I wasent thinking of putting the Evo vent on it, I wanted it to be a slope style vent, but after this is done And I pull a mold off of it, I can do things to make it like that, infact I had a few friends inquire me if that was the look I was goign for, so maybe when I pull a mold and then make a fiberglass top piece from the mold, ill use the stuff they use on mythbusters that they use to make body parts. We have that at work and use them to make plugs and dams, so ill fill in the vent and I could make one wiht the Evo look. the other thing that will be gone permenantly on the hood is the two vents that come on the hoods, those are getting filled in permenantly with 15lbs. rated foam ( I swear to god its as strong as plywood, but is so easy to sand) so if you can photo shop those two vents out, thats mainly what itll look like. Alex if you want the Evo look, just let me know and ill see what I can do for ya after I cast the first mold.
