I have to agree. It should have flowed down to the front. Looks like a LS6 hood style and on a nice long hood would look good but a short hood like the TB SS...I believe flowing would have been the ticket.

The lines of the hood should soften a bit with the paint on it. The hood is just the black jelcoat in these pictures. We were shooting for a 1970 Chevelle SS hood on Steriods.

6203 where? I'll be there with a tow truck to pick it up soon

Just kidding, but I really would like to see something like that in my driveway.

Very nice looking truck!

Here are some pictures of the 3M EPDM Rubber Weatherstrip Part Number 08650NA added to the hood. It has a perfect seal between the raised outline and the opening I cut in the Stock Airbox.

The guy that makes the hood is Eric. Send me a pm and I can give you his website. He doesnt currently have any hoods for the trucks but wants to possibly enter the market if there is enough interest.
