Anyone have a DRM hood? If so how was the fitment?? I just picked one up today and was wondering what I have in store for me!!

I believe Brian (Cobra4B) had one on his car. PM him or maybe he will post up in here.

Heres the pics. I still have to have it painted. I will be taking it Monday to paint!!!

It has some old chrome hinges on it that must go. I am painting both top and bottom.
I really wanted a MCM hood, but this one looks great and I like it just as well.

Did you buy the hood from Cobra4B??? His car is yellow??? It might be his old hood...

For a second I thought it was my old hood. I sold it to TheEvilGenius on CF. But the underside of mine was yellow w/ black inserts.

EDIT: That may be my old hood... I removed the under hood light (that one doesn't have it), and I removed the screens that go in the rear vents (that one doesn't have them), and I had the floor of the rear vent holes doen in bed liner (that looks to have them). Maybe the guy who bought my hood painted the underside all black, then got tired of it and sold it? His car was black... but he kept telling me he was getting one of the new TVS blowers. This hood wont't clear that or the maggies... maybe he found that out and sold it.

EDIT 2: Might not be it... Gary and I took time filling and smoothing out the raw texutred parts in the center of the underside of th hood. This one looks to be raw still.
