Craig,

The hood is ready to go! I need your phone number to put on the paper work. Its packed up pretty tight with fragile all over the box!

I'll send you the customs bill once I receive it from my broker.

I hope we can get this out today!

Thanks,

Med

No I don't think so. I had ordered one earlier but I had surgery and was in the hospital for a month and wasn't able to complete my purchase until after I got home. I think he may have more hoods, not sure, but he's in the middle of move'n. I'd keep in contact with him. The hood is stunning.

Med you out did yourself, Thank you you have restored my faith in group buys. I really don't want to paint part of the hood it's too nice ,but on an alabaster car may look a little too much. I am going to pre fit it on Saturday then pull it back off for painting and vent modification. Has anyone figured out how to prop it up yet? I am open for suggestions.

I will like to thank everyone for all the support. I'll like to also thank Mike for helping me out with the relocation to Seattle. You have no idea ......

By the way .... What did you think about the packing job, and the FedEx shipping?

I thought It was perfect!

Chat later ..... I have a new city to explore.... FYI.. my crossfire just showed up today..hand delivered to my hotel! Time to take her for a run on I-5

If my business hadn't gone into the red I'd have one of these ...... and I'd still love to have one. Anyone want to post up installed photos? Lots of love for how they look in the box, how about how they fit? I'm not to interested in hanging one on the wall, it's on the car or nothing.

I finally got around to put my hood on. It does not have the vents or anything but I am pretty sure it came from the same place as the others. I still have to tighten the bolts at the back of the front fenders to make the lines perfectly strait. As for mounting... I had to adjust a few things and put in 2 spacers for it to go on and notch out a little spot so that it will latch, but you can't see any of that now when it is on. I will have more pictures through out the summer but this will do for now. I don't think I will be putting on the carbon fiber wings, I am just thinking of going with a vynal sticker or something... not too sure yet
