    I thought it looked good the way it was. This tells me it will only look better!

    That's looking good, Ian. Did you get the rear spoiler to fit OK? I like the front spoiler. It's not too low, so you can actually drive it and not worry about ripping it off on the canyon-sized potholes here in the Maritimes.

    What colour are you going with?

    Iam putting a weiand supercharger on it motor is being built now. Does any one know if the stock hood is gonna shut? I won't find out till I put the motor in and I wanted to start on my hood. But if it won't then ill half to go a diffrent route and make a cowl hood.

    Thanks guys. It's bring but the florescent lights make it look super bright. Gt stripes and a flat black hood. That colour I think will make the flat black stand out awesome.

    I do like the color choice.. The whole hood black might be too much black.. But it's yours.. Keep the pics coming (y)

    there was a dove grey car with a weiand supercharger on it with a stock flat hood, so I would have to say yes it will fit.

    I see lost of maverick with stock hoods and superchargers. But I guess what Iam wondering now is a maverick hood similar to a comet hood as far as inner height ?
