That looks great! Plus excellent engineering and fabrication.. recycling a wrecked Mopar hood, works with the Volare hood lines, and helps with the clearance you need.
Heck,make a mold of that hood and sell fiberglass copies!! LOL Better put a patent on that puppy,LOL That would be Awesome!

I think you're on the right track.  I think it looks way better than other hoods I've seen. The only thing I may have done different would be to remove the center pointed section and left it straight just behind the air inlets, similar to a T/A hood I guess. Kind of a hard thing to test though and not certain it would look any better than it already does. Overall, you should be really happy with it. Very nice work. Always nice to see something different. Edit: I think it looks very nice. Please don't take my input as a negative comment. It was just a thought and I hope it didn't come across wrong... -Trent

Different, looks good, although a bit fordish looking to me in some ways.
How will the underside end up looking?

Did you make it functional or is it just for looks? As heavy as the Volare hood is I would cast it in fiberglass as i would your custom bumpers. This is an easy way to remove 200 lbs.
