Import Trenz Hood

I know this hood just came out like 5 minutes ago, but has anyone seen a pic with this thing actually painted? Looks like it might be cool, but I've only ben able to see these few pics of it. Any help/ideas? Thanks!

It can be painted, just use a reputable paint shop not MAACO

Yeah I was just wondering if anyone had any pics of what it might look like. Any one have this on order yet? There seems to only be 3 types of coblat hoods - how do you guys feel about this one?

I have bought the fiberglass one. I need to put other heat extractors closer to the window and c\f isn't so easy to work with for that purpose. I like the look.

Definity will help cool the heaton down just a hair under the hood. Keep the hot air out from under the hood if it is functional.

Anyone worried about the heat coming off damaging the windshiled wipers or the molding around the front windshield? Will be interesting to see.

And to note I HIGHLY doubt tht would be possible.

I saw a mercedes driving around and it had heat extractors right where I am going to put the ones in my hood. I will be getting this done at a custom shop so we will make sure to prevent unwanted water.

I wish there were more pics of it out there. I'd like to see some better angles, and color would be nice. We'll just have to wait...

That works for most people but trying to mod a c\f hood doesn't work so well.
