Sarge, I don't think anyone thinks your getting anything but a great hood out of this. I'm thankful you stepped up and found someone to make it at a great price. As far as the strakes on the hood, when I first heard of and saw pictures of Mikes hood I wasn't sure if I would like it but when seeing it in person, I was sold. Also, I think the straight on view does show the "nostrils" line up and go very well with the lower grill work.

Each of us have our own eyes and views on looks so I can see the difficulty in getting people committed. That said, those of you on the fence, take another look at the scoop and possibilities.
