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.

yea i did pay wit pay pal, i spoke to them last week asking why hasnt it been shipped. their excuse was it was damaged and poor quality, they said they ORDER me another hood, i said i thought you guys make them, and he said thats what i meant. i was suspicious there, they said it would be done by thurs 05/10) and i would get a call friday (yesterday) i got no call so ill wait till monday. if they come up with another excuse im gonna let paypal handle it. so far my excuses:

ran out of CF resin
changed shipping company
hood made was poor quality
