Some of the newer members may not know this,but Moparrbust was the first creator of using the XKR Jaguar grills with cowl induction modified to a Crossfire hood. His creation was then copied by another member here then mass produced in carbon fiber. Now Moparrbust has created another awesome hood. This time for the SRT Jeep. You Da Hood Man Moparrbust....

Do you have a triumph tr2 or tr3 with an sr20det blacktop, or an rb26 swap in it? If thats the case call your insurance company because you have just been robbed!!!

I think you are extremely talented and it looks stock - will make people wonder just like your original. Nice work.

The new generation of SRT8GCs are incredible. However they start around $55k, eek.

You should put a Viper badge on it now since you've got official Viper parts on it. Same thing right?

This one was a lot easier(even though the hood is aluminum) than my original Crossfire hood and it took me 15 hours spread out over a weeks time. I had more incentive to get it done sooner since it was a paid project.

Nice job! I'll post a photo of it over on the Jeep site if you don't mind.

I believe my friend may have already posted it up on those forums. There is somebody that(I found out after building mine) already did a similar hood mod...........but the guy/company that did it hacked it together on the underside by cutting out ALL hood reinforcements which I did not do since I care about structural integrity.

A touch above 50% of the ML63, not bad if you ask me, especially since its a touch faster with a little less power....

I like you, Nick, but seriously, get over it. We are all glad you have an AMG, but either quit with this stuff or go to your private lounge where you can scoff at the lesser human beings....
