| So The Mistress had a run in with a Michigan
White Tail Deer. The deer took out the hood, left front fender and the
driver's side door. Well, to make the most of this unfortunate
accident, I decided to not put a stock hood back on but to put on an
aftermarket hood instead. The hood I decided to go with was the
MRT Cherry 6T6 hood. |

New hood - scuffed and ready for primer
|
New hood was pre-fitted. There were ZERO fitment issues!
|
New hood is primed. The hood only took 2 coats of primer and required
no fiberglass work! |
|
Ta-Da!!! |

A couple of quick snapshots...

The scoops are open bringing LOTS of fresh air into the engine bay!

When I told Carl, i was thinking about putting
an aftermarket hood on, he kind of rolled his eyes at me and warned me about
fitment issues and prep problems.... and that it could really end up costing
me a quite a bit of $$$ to paint and install and aftermarket hood. As
it turned out the MRT hood had no
issues what so ever! It fit perfectly and did not require any extra
special prepping! When we were all done I asked Carl what he thought about
the MRT hood. Basically he said it was one of the nicest fiberglass
pieces he had ever worked with. And much to his surprise there were no
problems with it!
So once again MRT has provided us
with another great product! You can check out the
