Nice job. Looks great.

timberwolf · December 6th, 2008, 05:42 PM

nice addition

Dr BlackStang · December 6th, 2008, 05:49 PM

Oh by the way, since Cervini doesnt make inserts for the Ram air type IV hood I wound up going to Home Depot and I bought some mesh RAIN GUTTER mesh to keep leaves out of gutter. The mesh ran me $1.98 and at the present time is unpainted lol Funny huh?

TheDuke · December 6th, 2008, 06:45 PM

Looks Good. I have been thinking of doing this too. Tried to get a chunk of screen to match the window scoops and lower bumper scoops from Cervinis and got denied. Can you take a close up picture?

97mustanggt · December 6th, 2008, 06:47 PM

not really a fan of that hood...but its looks good...

Lefty · December 6th, 2008, 06:53 PM

Looks slick man!

07KenneBellChargedGT · December 6th, 2008, 08:09 PM

It looks nice.
Not a fan of those hood pins where they were installed, I think the should be futher out but it looks nice and I love Cervini hoods!

Dr BlackStang · December 6th, 2008, 09:27 PM

Why was this thread moved? The pins had to go where they are because how they are meant to be mounted in the radiator supports... since it was an after market hood, it had to be alittle different. I can take some close ups tomorrow...

timberwolf · December 6th, 2008, 09:50 PM

They like to keep the tech sections for that...this is more of a look what I did thing, going under visual...

Dr BlackStang · December 6th, 2008, 10:38 PM

Gotcha.... Here I added another pic which is somewhat more of a close up.

That looks pretty good. Think I am going to have to pick some up.

1FUN4RD · December 7th, 2008, 12:55 AM

Don't drive in the rain. Problem solved.

Dr BlackStang · December 7th, 2008, 10:03 AM

yeah think I am gonna use some more of the same mesh for the lower grill to help tie it all together so to speak. Think it will dress it up, and help it look like an after market lover grill lol, for us cheap bastards lol

psycho bob · December 7th, 2008, 12:33 PM

that looks damn good. how did you connect it to the hood inside. painting would look good i think.

GreenFaleen · December 7th, 2008, 12:52 PM

i dont like the pin location but other wise looks good, the hood pins just look out of place there

I hear what your saying, but the pin location doesnt bother me one bit. Keep in mind I will be adding an eleanor type grill with chrome fog light bezels, think the will help it out...

Novanutcase · December 7th, 2008, 09:50 PM

I like where the pins are. I would go to your local metal supply and get the correct metal for the mesh. The rain gutter stuff won't last long and is easily bent.

Look good! Good job!
