Cowl induction hood sprayed and installed... pics!

[dale_gribble]

Man I love this hood. It turned out exactly how I wanted it to. The style compliments the truck, it gives an aggressive style and the fit and finish was incredible. I paid $340 for the hood and $200 to get it sprayed and installed. I was happy to pay the $200 bucks for the paint and install, because 3 guys worked on it for about an hour and got it PERFECT. The gaps are all right on. They had to pull it off and reinstall it 3 times. I couldn't be happier. They sprayed it with the paint code that I gave them (GM White 5111), and even though the truck's paint is about 2 years older, the hood matches perfectly. Gotta love white.

I noticed the engine is running a little cooler, about 5 degrees or so. I have every intention of making a fully functional cold air intake utilizing the raised cowl. It won't be just for looks for long.

What ya think?

Nice, that doesn't happen to be a steel reflections hood does it? I picked one up for 340 aswell and eager to see how well it fits.

Nice burb

That's the hood! Reflexxions steel.

It does have an impact on visibility to the RH front corner. I was surprised when I made a slow RH turn to avoid my kids toys in the driveway what the impact was.

hard to believe visibility could get much worse on these things . that said, very nice. i'd like to go with a cowl induction, or even ramair hood on mine. my jeeper buddy would give me grief about it, but hey, he drives a jeep.
