Yea I'm still without my car. It's been a total of 13 days so far and I'm goin' nuts. 146 and I would've gone nuts. You're a stronger man than I. The new hood will be a nice addition. Cobra R FTW

actually i havent seen it im here at school, the shop said they like it alot

BTW did you put the hood on or did you have a body shop do it? they told me that need to have a body shop guy look at it to put it on right, i guess the back sits high, they might have to mess with the hinges and crap, but other than that is fits great i guess

I had mine delivered to my local Dealer's body shop.I know a few guy's there and they helped me put it on.Mine had to be adjusted a little bit but not much.The biggest problem was the front latch.

yeah they said the front wont latch right now, but he said that he knows a body guy that could get it to fit right he said they might have to shim it a little bit, but i hope not, these guys dont know much about body work so i hope it doesnt have to be shimmed..did you get hood pins right away or is it fine without hood pins?

I got hood pin's like a week later.I just did'nt feel safe without them.Also VIS say's they are needed.The last thing you want is your $700 hood flying off going down the highway.

Also the hood is so thick where the hood pin's usually go that you need some really long pin's or have them done like mine were.
