Where did you get the hood?
What kind is it?
How much did you pay?
The fitment looks pretty good, how is it in person?

come on, details.....

The front looks pretty good. I'm sure it will look even better with a grille in there

Off the group deal.
Custom Carbons.
$300.
It took my friend and I about 15 minutes for install and the fitment is pretty awsome. The left side ,when compared to the fender, is just below the fender and the right is flush...The hinge was a little long so we wrapped some electric tape around the bottom of it, so if you were to try to tug on the hook it wouldnt move.

Magikone69,
If you complain to ebay they will try and resolve it real quick, I'm talking like within 24 hrs quick. It ain't slow like it used to be, ebay can get seller's attention.

Looks good. Get a grill and leave the emblem off. Looks hot like that.

I have a 97-99 with broken tabs and it won't fit directly along the bottom there is to much clearance space...I would have to do the front end conversion like i am planning on doing probably anyway...

there is a writeup somewhere in the stickies on how to make the 97-99 grill fit on a 95-96 bumper it involves shaving parts off of the bottom of the grill with a dremel so that it fits flush on the bumper

Hood looks nice, now get some hood pins before your new hood ends up looking worse then your old hood.
