I'd like to see better pics and mounted on the car

Does it use the OE hood hinge system?

More importantly, howTF will I paint the vents if they're molded in? :confused:

Tape off around the vents?? :2tu:

I'd also like to see a pic of the hood on a Viper. I'll even volunteer my car. Hell, I'll pay for shipping. :D

Since this isn't a vendor review, I moved the thread to the RT10/GTS section.

That is a nice looking hood fo sho. I'd sport that on my car.

Can a ebay auction be posted on this forum? If so there is a Viper on ebay that has this hood. It's that crazy 1998 White GTS. Has some good pictures of the hood...

In this case, yes an Ebay link is fine...it's for purposes of discussion and not an attempt at free advertising, which is what we frown upon. I'd like to see it.

Explaining Viper things to you
Curious why with the vendors name mentioned in the thread title why that vendor has not chimed in.

Or is that against the puckered up tighter than bat snot vendor posting rules.

Personally I like the hood. If it wasn't for my stripes I would be interested but it would be a nightmare to have stripes painted on it and I know I would not like it afterwards.

from the link above:

As you will see in the pictures the Front & Rear clip & louvered hood & wing were produced by Hennessey at a cost of over $20,000.

Overall, that white car is cool looking, but I agree with the "kit car" look and repaint comments. Looking down the side (yes, it is a photo), the finish on the paint is not really smooth as in a top notch paint job.

Thanks.,

I saved some pics of this car when it was on ebay the first time.
I kind of like the look of it. Its unique.

I though this was the diamondback hood before. But they are different.
compare treesnake's diamondback

the diamondback is much more curvy and lumpy than stock. The partsrack/henn hood is very flat-looking.

That interior in my opinion is Gaudy with a capital "G". What is the "stuff" around the speedo? It almost looks like rust.
