    Is that a grand am stick on hood? I think you should save up and just paint the whole car...

      Yeah its off a grand am but he is going to mold it into the exsisting hood. I can never picture stuff like this until its done and painted.

        Yep, I agree.

        Now you're gonna tell us you've got a twin coffee can exhaust and a 3-foot aluminum wing on the "to-do" list as well...

              It's not going to be that tall, it still needs to be trimmed down underneath. It's almost the same dimensions as the "Big Block" hood, but the cowl is split. It is an actual Grand Am hood, and we trimmed it down to fit. Even if it is rice, it will help to hide the fact that I have a V6 very nicely. . . lol It's not going to look bad, I think it will look pretty cool, actually. It is going to sit closer to the windshield, but I couldn't get it tot stay in position long enought to take a quick pic. . . Honestly, what do you guys think? It should look a lot like the photoshop that was posted here earlier. . . The bra will come off at the same time, too, so I will be driving a car that looks like a POS for a while. . .

                No coffee can exhaust, but I was thinking about installing a coffee maker in the glove box and a toaster in the center console, for those mornings when there simply isn't enough time to have my morning coffe and bagel. . . lol No wing, unless I get one like Meissens or an SS spoiler, and the exhaust is coming within like 2 weeks. . . Flowmaster 80 series dual outlet muffler. It's going to be pretty cool, and definitely unique, I promise. . .

                        I'll have to see it done to make a judgement, but the hood on a Grand Am GT had fake scoops, right? I almost bought one (a 2001 Grand Am GT that is), and the ram air actually uses the front grilles, not the hood scoops. Are you planning on making the scoops functional?

                          I would hope so, or it would be pointless.

                              Yes, the ram air scoops will be functional. C'mon, guys! Does everyone really think it's gonna look like crap? I want to do something that looks good, but I won't do it unless I get some support here. I'm buying another hood so I don't destroy the original hood. . . Nobody thinks I should do it?

                                I do think so..better off just buying a SS hood or something.
