Default Hood pins?
Do you by chance have any pictures of your hood pin mounting on the core support? I'm looking to do a pair on mine, so I'm trying to collect information on the best location to mount them.

Thanx! (oh, and as everyone else says, great project! )

What happened to the hood I though the snorkles extended up to the nose?

That is not the hood they are using. I believe they are making molds of the hood you are referring to.

The car was sprayed today. The striping will be laid and sprayed tomorrow and then cleared and wet sanded 4 times. The paint is black with a hint of fleck. I included a couple videos from the spray booth.

We sprayed the stripes and started the wet sanding and clearing. Final assembly starts on the main body today. The pictures do not do it justice but let me know what you think of the color. The body really pops with the hint of fleck in the paint. The pearl stripe will tie in the reverse stitching color on the interior fabric.
