The scoop doesn't look bad. up.

Just looking at the tape, are you having to offset it to one side?

How are you planning on attaching it to the hood?

Nice work on the rear end and exhaust!

No on the need to offset. I was using the tape to help center it up for the initial cut...

The scoop will be welded in place.

".....That kind of hurt..."

I know that feeling LOL. At least when I did mine I didn't have paint on it.

Good progress though.

Man, it took a great leap of faith to cut into that hood! I would have been beating my head against the wall for months hoping to find a different alternative.
It came out looking good! Nice job. Gene
