I think it looks better with the glass fenders but still looks cool and different.

Most of the time I don't like stuff like that, I think it looks kinda cheesy. But I gotta say, that hood is Badass! It really looks sweet.

Thank you for your positive comments. We just pulled the hood mold off the plug this AM, and are detailing it today. By the middle of next week we will have Brians hood completed. If any of you are interested, 310 327 2337, or email me at <mikemcqueen2@sbcglobal.net> We will post pics next week. For those who dont know MCQUEEN PROTOTYPE is one of the leaders in off road and race car
bodys. <mpdfiberbodywerx.com> Thank you Mike McQueen.

We just finished Brians hood, it weighs a whoppin 16 lbs, bolts right on and will be installed next week when he gets back from vacation. Ive noticed 2 other threads dealing with this hood and fender issue.
I dont see much response, so i assume there is not that much interest. But we will post pics next week. Mike

I really like your hood. I have a 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT that's lifted. They don't make any aftermarket hoods for the ST. Their not too different form the Ranger or Explorer hoods. If I were to get a bunch of guys to make a group buy do you think your guy at McQueen would built them?

It's f'n long distance.. You guys need to get some online presence and hire someone for that.
I would be down for one but not until I get a house and settled first.
