Hey Well as a winter project ive decided to Possibly Attempt the cowl hood think it looks AMZING i just have a few questions if anyone could help
What is the best way to do this? my first thought and what mostlikly ill try is i can get a 2nd hood easly. Would it be easyer to Cut the hood up and weld side peices and fiberglass/bondo it?
or would it be smarter just to buy the fiberglass cowl.
welding and paint preping is something i can do quit well. My dad paints.
but could anyone give me some advice on how to do this.

If it were me i'd look around for prefab cawl i liked and slap that on... i wouldn't really wanna make one from scratch... course you could find one to just mold off too...

Welcome to America where people get offended easily.......... I personally don't care if people speak their minds... It's their right to an opinion...
As for the hood idea.... I'd build one...... If you do, let me know how much it cost you and if you'd be willing to MAYBE make me one. :D

if you want to build a hood do it. im thinking of doing one. i would rather spend my time and money to build something then to buy it. at the end of the day i can stand back and say i built that not " that costed me $xxx.xx and so and so installed it for me " that is the problem. nobody is out there trying new things in there back yards. I have build a jeep from ground up made my own mounts, brackets, etc. i could have bought them but i decided to take a grinder, torch, welder and make my own. so if you have the balls to take a grinder to your car then do it. don't knock someone down for some thing that you cant do or want try ( or just have to much money and can waste it ). i have three welders, grinders, torches, drill press, two full tool boxes, tubing bender and other stuff ( also have access to lathe and mill mach. im a trained tool and die maker so yes i know how to use them.) so steven01 or any one else want to build make some thing let me know how i can help.
im actually thinkin of making strut tower braces for my car. $100+ each i think i will make my own ( how meny you want?)
let the bashing begin and yes i know there are sp and puncuation errors no need to tell me :rolleyes2: :haha: :lol: :coolio: :yahoo: ;)

I am not going to explain the past (where I did not cheat) to someone who doesn’t know what happen and is just trying to bash me. Thanks for proving your immateriality and further justifying my statement.
