Got my new hood!

[General Stalin]

Well guys, finally decided and got the hood I wanted for the denali. Came to my door last friday, brought it in for paint on monday. I'm thoroughly satisfied, I just have to bring it back to the bodyshop for repaint because they did a hack job (lots of hair-lines, dust, and bubbles). They will redo the paint for free and they will be more careful I'm sure, just sucks I gotta wait a couple more days. Without further adieu:

Very nice. Now, does it actually do anything or just for looks? I mean, do the vent holes actually go through the hood to use as a ram air? If not, you should diffenently cut thru the inside to make it functional. IMO. I would also throw some sort of mesh inserts inside those holes to give it a beefer look. again, IMO. Otherwise, it does look good, nice job. Sucks about the paint though!!! Atleast there gonna stand by there work and fix it for you for free

Where in Mass are you? I'm moving to Cape Cod this summer.

No worries man, it is a fully funtional ram-air with ducting that routes to the air-box. I wouldn't have wasted money on it if it was just for looks. Also, there is steel mesh in those holes, you just can't see in those pics. I will post a couple more pictures when I get home from work. Thanks!

Looks good bro. Looks like everything is lined up good. Looks mean!

I go to college 35 mins from Cape Cod and my girlfriend lives in Barnstable on the Cape.

Enjoy it, but summer traffic SUCKS

I don't live near the cape; I live like 2 hours north. Northeast MA, in the Merrimack Valley area. It's decent up here.

The pictures I promised:



^ See? Mesh!



Mmmmm fiberglass with a steel structure



Air intake.

Looks Real Good! Do you already it setup for the Ram Air?

 

[General Stalin]

No not yet, I need to buy an intake next. That will have to be after the BB Tuning trip in April, it was about $1000 all together with buying the hood and having it painted (I also had my front bumper repainted because it was cruddy) so needless to say, I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.
