Scott, that green looks cool even if it is a photoshop job. Can't wait for my new hood and facia from you to be delivered next week .My black beauty is going to look like a menacing black SHARK!

Oh my...you didn't show an angle that highlights that terrible gap between the hood and corners of the front bumper cover. I guess we don't all see gaps as a quality issue. If it is above 5mm, it ain't right.

Viperfreak2 I am wondering if the gaps are due to not being aligned completely. You are very quick to say it is a quality issue. My viper with 1800 miles had a hood fitment issue on the passenger side. I spent 3-4 hours adjusting the shims under the light and the moving the hood latches to reduce the gap. I am just making the point that there are a lot of shims in Viper body parts, so that might be the issue. If you look at the first blue picture the stripes look a bit off, I am not sure if that can be adjusted as it is a horizontal adjustment.

I think that we are within the 5mm quality window :) ..I assure you that no quality was sacraficed in the design and making of this hood.......Thanks for the assistance Austin

Those next pictures look great! Same car??? I was only referring to the second pic down. Looks like the hood wasn't closed. I brought it up because my car is very bad from the factory. It's the only thing I see everytime I look at the car and think about how much trouble it would be to 'shim' and adjust it out.

Yes same car....... Actually you convinced me to adjust it.I sent my hinges out to be plated and have another set on the car,so i was going to wait to make the final adjustment until i recieved the plated hinges.But there is many adjustments on the hinges and it is no picnic.

Can you do post a picture of the car from the side, as in a silhouette. I am interested in the fascia and want to get a perspective on how far out it protrudes.
