The horn on the top of the bumper cover on the driver side is like fully exposed and the other is tucked under the hood.

Hood pins are necessary when you go with any aftermarket hood and don't like the idea of it slamming into your windshield at speed on the freeway..

My cowl measures in at about 2 3/4in got it from extreme dimensions, fit was a pain in the ass but after playing with the fenders a little I got it to line up alright





After I installed the hood pins

Id say stick with either HO Fibertrends or Cervinis. Thats my opinion of course and I dont have much experience with any of the others. I know that I didnt have to do anything to my fenders for adjusting and the line up is great. Be sure to let us know!

HO fibertrends hands down.

I installed mine in literally 15 min in the pits at NMRA Columbus, fit perfect & didn't have to fool with the fenders/etc. they also use an OE Ford latch plate in their hoods.

Ill get some pics of the new car later. Its got the entire front end tore down right now to a bare core support. I finished making my pulls on it and its straight now. It really needed a new core support put in but "pops" can sure work some metal!!!

I should have the car back together and all with only paint left by the end of the week if i can get off work early enough.

I got the trans pulled from the silver car tonight. It is pretty jacked. Havent dove into it to see what the exact problem is but there is slack everywhere and just a bunch of banging go on inside. lol.

Im going to also try to have my built/blown motor pulled out the silver car by the end of the week.

I think HO measures that actual cowl where Cervinis measures from the fender.
