i posted pics of this hood and got a ton questions,i'm thinking of making a bunch of them,i would call them fitted hood covers,simply fit's over your stock hood,duramix make a panel adhesive that would hold the hood cover to you factory hood
i'm checking into materials and how much it would cost to produce a bunch,if i could make them affordable,this would cover completely over your stock hood,glue and clamp and it's done,i'm checking into having them made in abs plastic and checking on fiberglass,i just wanna get some feed back,and yes they can be functional,think of having vents cut on your stock hood them placing the hood cover,that would make it functional,heres the hood in question.. i have a bodyshop so getting them painted to match is possible to

i'm checking now,i can make them in fiberglass in house thats not a problem but i have a friend i may be able to get a jet mold in abs plastic,i can do trade off work for the plastic ones or hand lay and roll them in fibergalss? thats what i'm figuring out this weekend and see if it would be worth pulling my hood off and making a mold and producing say 50 of them and see what happens?or am i dreaming, if i had to guess but don't hold me to it $$250-350 ISH

Damn, that is one bada$$ looking hood right there. Is that a whole hood in the pic or is that one with the actual cover on top of it like you were saying? If it is the hood cover, how does it wrap over the sides and stuff? And does it have an opening towards the windshield for the heat to escape?
