New Hood

[zeeman]

I recently scored a new Harwood hood from a guy a Craigs list
I dropped the car off for paint yesterday! I cant wait to get it back.
I had to extend the front 3/8ths of an inch, it just didnt look right with a big 1/2 inch gap in front. I slid it down as far as it would go but still looked like poo. I even opened up the holes in the hinges so it could come down further. No go.
Here it is after modifications, before paint.

Its like Christmas!

It was modded using fiberglass and epoxy, West systems epoxy. with a bit of baby powder to thicken it up and keep it from running. I chopped up a bunch of cloth fibers and mixed it with epoxy to use as a filler worked great put a bunch of cloth on top and bottom to reinforce everything. My painter is going to fix the scuff on the drivers wheel well too, as well as both sides of the hood and blend everything.

Looks good. i know the camaro bumper skins have a tendency to slide forward...making the gap larger

My painter, Herb, the owner of Herbs auto body, hooked me up. he did both sides of the hood, fixed the drivers fender, (was scuffed around the wheelwell) blended it into the fenders and nose, the reclered the fenders and the header panel. Looks awesome. He also gave me a fitted cover he had, new in the box.

Looks good. It's pretty time consuming taping up the headlight buckets.

Looks great. Hood flows much better on the LT1s than the LS
