Post by: 1WLD BRD on April 29, 2006, 11:55:37 PM

Thanks guys.  The hood is all steel, and totally functional.  For those that are thinking it has to be heavy....  Wrong, believe it or not.  It is the same weight as a stock hood with the liner still in place.  I made the hood with the idea of getting a mold built to make pure fiberglass versions, but I'm not sure how to go a bout doing it.

Nice man.  I'm sure it could be used as a Fiberglass mold, it's just a matter of finding someone to teach you how to glass.
