Default New photos of My blue hood

Just a few new pics of my baby with its new hood,but this time properly buffed and polished, and one question, i know its the only crossie with this type of hood in the world at the moment, but is it the only one with a blue hood?

Hopefully if i've done this right you'll find the album here.

Moparfreak is correct, a lot of hood manufacturers ask you to send the old glass in but BAS do the whole of the process together , do we know of any Crossfires with blue hoods?

It looks like glass to me. The clouds reflecting off of it look the same in the windshield, thats how I figure it is glass. Plastic doesn't reflect well, and is usually slightly wavy no matter how tight you can stretch it.

Can somebody help me out with some photoshop work? I wonder how this would look on my car, which is also aero blue, but my wheels, side strakes, grill and winshield surround are all charcoal. I dont have access to my PC which is a couple thousand miles away from me right now.

And I think there may be one or 2 others that have gone with blue roofs, but I think they are in one of the southern states in the US.

Looks very smart (link works fine) can I ask why you replaced the hood in the first place?

Hi Dal, the reason for the new top is BAS put a post up asking for a car finish a prototype roof for export to the states, i offered my car and in return they made a top free for my troubles in any colour i wanted. So hey presto! I still have the old black one should things go wrong.
