Re: Cowl rise hoods

Hey Tony, sorry for all the questions, But is the hood scoop glued (bonded) to the hood? were they painted together once assembled?

Greenwood scoop fitment was very good. I just prefit to hood just to make sure then had it painted then it was bolted and glued to hood.

I have done BFR Rockers, Prowler M1.. why? because I liked the looks

I will probably end up with an OEM hood, but I like the first one is a 1" bulge, that just sets it apart from the rest, subtle enough to not be obvious at first glance

So out of all the hoods, I would choose the one I first posted.. I am not too big a fan of the vents so I am on the fence regarding it, but I need to wait for it to release

Hey -=Jeff=-,

We have similar tastes as I also have the BFR rockers (not installed) and Prowler M1. As you know I bought a used TP hood and will install the Greenwood louvers and replace hood latches with Aerocatch system. The only bummer is I won't do this until I get back to Hawaii next year and will post all the photos when I do. Best wishes in finding a hood that meets your tastes and I was just fortunate to get a good deal on a used one locally in Hawaii otherwise I would not have one.

Look Great....

Except for the missing under structure which has one fender bolt and the hood strut mount in it, Waiting to see what they are going to do to fix it.. I also don't see ANY other hardware for mounting

On another note.. I found a couple picture of the other hood on a vette (one with the NACA vents)

Re: Cowl rise hoods

Probably just me but the vents and the naca ducts for some reason makes me think of the Corvette Summer car, too much.

Once you buy the Carbon Fiber hood for your 90, I will gladly buy your current 90 hood..
