Project Updates and Pictures as of 12/19/11
Hey everyone here is a few more pictures of our cuda project. We wound up ordering all new front sheet metal from AMD including a shaker hood, upper header panel, and lower valance. We aligned the fenders and started to square the nose. Due to the engine set back of 8 inches, we then determined to lengthen the shaker opening rather then moving the entire scoop back on the hood. We felt that by extending the hood opening would look proportional to the car rather then moving the entire scoop back. By extending the hood we wound up shaving the hood vents and went with he smooth style hood. You can see how far we moved it in the picture of the stock shaker trim ring compared the extended opening. Here are some pictures of our hood customization. Take a look and give us some feedback.
