    That's a spare hood I gutted and hit with flat black. Gives a nod to the old muscle cars.

      Just needs stickers on the bottom now. I can send you a few Summit Racing ones if you want that full hot-rod effect

        HA stickers done the whole side.
        Added bonus of the new shoes is they are 2.2 lbs lighter per corner with the same rubber. Score! Wish someone made a good dry CF hood.

          Well, its time for an update and not a good one. After enjoying the car and process for almost 4yrs, the car was totaled a couple nights ago. I was reversing into my driveway at home and some cat in a Silverado plowed into me. Its a sad turn of event. No one was seriously hurt though.



          I haven't decide the direction going forward. Car has tons of good parts. Guess we'll see what insurance says.......

            Gosh dude, that sucks. I have a fairly non-rusty '89 bronzit coupe roller with roasted paint you may be able to use to reshell with. Car came from Mississippi.

                That looks like a brutal hit. Sad to see the car, but lucky to make it out without anything serious.

                        I'm running some circles and learning a few things along the way with Hagerty at the moment taking care of some deer damage. Let me know if I can be any help if they start battling you.

                        I was up above it, Now I'm down in it ~ Entropy - A Build thread.

                          Thanks man. I think it should be pretty clear cut but you never know.

                              sad for you. somehow i think you'll bounce back considering the background cars. good luck with it all.

                                oof, sad to see this happen, but it's a car and that looks like a nasty hit, so you being okay is the silver lining here.

                                Was it a declared value policy?
