Excellent JOB! I'm going to put this on my list!!

 

Looks awesome! Very clean job and looks like it came that way

Any concerns with rain or water in general?

 

Defenitely a great mod. Best part is that it is functional.

The only critique I have is the color of the rivets should be painted black. I think the silver in the rivets looks tacky for some reason...Just a personal opinion.

 

looks like floor vents. IMO

 

a smaller size would better suit the hood imho, do they make different sizes? those look a bit large since they hit all the stock hood trinkets on each side.

 

SIZE MEDIUM
(9" X 14" each panel)
They sure do I am going with the 9x14

 

Bob from Runcool sent me both the stainless and black rivets. I was going to do the black but the rivets still have the silver rivet pin. Plus I figured the paint would chip or wear off them then look like crap.

I wanted the biggest louvers I could comfortably fit with the stock hood and the 6.1 Hemi. A lot of function is lost by the hood supports so the more louver the better. I may still go back and carefully remove more bracing. Harder to do now that they are on though.

 

I have the 3.8 and I bought a take off hood off a Rubi for 100 bucks now its got to be sanded primered and painted gonna paint it flat black.

 

You did a great job with this! I really like it a lot. I'm sure I'll be doing this to mine here in the near future. I like that you did it yourself and you don't have to pay close to 800 bucks to get a different look and it's functional. Thanks for the write-up

 

You're welcome! Thanks for the kind words.
