if you really wanna add to it and make look even better, paint the grille shell that follows the same line as on the hood. where it swerves down and around the grille. i think that would look sick!

yep, don't worry it's going to the paint shop next weekend, it looked a little stupid with the outline of the scoops on the hood. I just rinsed the dust off of it it looks better in person, I will get some better pics in the morning.

well, I woke up this morning and a damn cat must have liked the smell of that fresh paint, it scratched it all to hell, I didn't have time to redo it myself so I took it and the grill to the guy that painted the truck, I should have it back in a couple of days.

Anyways here is how im rollin now, 93 hood on an 01.

Yeah its pretty ain't it.lol, it actually fits damn good but the latch is different so it wont close all the way, Good ole 14 guage speaker wire, lets hope it holds.

Please be careful driving around with just that speaker wire holding your hood down. Don't go on the interstate or drive over 45mph or so. I had a friend die from not latching their hood down all the way and it flew up on the highway and they couldn't see. Ended up driving into oncoming traffic.
