my dynacorn grabber hood pics

here it is. im amazed at the quality of this hood. the metal is so strong and sturdy. the scoops fit very well and may need just a light bit of working to make them perfect, but only a good body man could even see that.

it was packed in 2 huge boxes and bubble wrapped. if you have been wondering about this hood, then i say go for it and buy it. heres some pics. havent test fitted yet, but im almost 100% sure itll be perfect.

i ordered it from melvins classic ford and the communication from start to finish was perfect.

 

im thinking rather than paint the inside grill part of the scoop black, i might cut that backing piece out and install a stainless steel wire mesh of the same size and design as the mesh imprint already there. make it real. although if i paint the mesh wire black, that would look good too. going to see if i can find pics first of this idea before i cut into a $150 piece.

and on a wild and crazy note, it would be cool to have smoke shoot out the scoops like a dragon breathing when at a red light. lol, smoke machine anyone?

 

Just purge your nitrous out the scoops!

 

......

 

Are the scoops new as well?

 

Hi Satchel :
Yep ! Same here .. Ordered the hood and scoops from Melvins in May this year and had it painted for the JUNE HRPT . Wrapping was stellar .. found a few spots that needed attention before we painted it to match the rest of the
car but our painter is really particular . Fit was good and I get a lot of compliments on the hood. I would also
recommend this hood to anyone out there that is considering the Grabber Hood !

yes.

 

stupid question, but how are others mounting the scoops to the hood? each scoop has 3 drop down pins that go through 3 matching holes in the hood, but they dont have any threads on them. i can put some on and use small nuts i suppose, or better yet use something to glue them down to avoid rattle. i dont ever plan on running without them anyway. thoughts?

 

They use a acorn style speed nut

 

they have no threads.

 

They use nuts that cut their own threads.

 

ill figure out something at fastenal tomorrow. just wanted to be sure i wasnt overlooking something simple.

 

ahhh got ya. ok no problem then. thanks!

 

the hood fits really nice. now for some paint.

 

No problem. If you ever look at the boomerangs they have the same type of nut that cuts it own thread. Just a different shape.
