I'd totally pay you to make one, but shipping would be a b!tch. I really like that hood tho. Its slightly more aggressive than stock but not all crazy rice like most aftermarket hoods. That reminds me of an old nova or camaro hood. Beautiful job, my man.

If you had a few mins to outline your your work I'd be super appreciative tho. I could get one made. That is the hood I want for my coupe.

Well it came off a 2012 camaro so you're right with the looks. I'm pretty happy how it came out, now I just need to lower the car.

Here is the back end with my eBay lip worked into it. The lights are in the process of getting the lower half smoked with the turn signal area white. Then the stillen rear lip will finish her off!

I did, I used my oem g35 hood, then the cowl off a camaro hood, worked it in and called it a day. I can post a step by step guide to do it for you if you would like. I have a coupe I want to try it on next.

Check local body shops for scrap hoods, usually you can save the cowl. Mine was off the car on the frame machine in the pics. Or get your car to Texas and I'll do it.
