Thanks guys. It’s coming alone well. And I like the lines around the hood. Hate when it blend in. Very small lines. Call me crazy. Lol.

Hood looks like it came from a modded Fox Mustang, but it's your car do whatever u want.

Much better with the original headlights!
Very nice paintwork.
I believe the hood is totally your choice. Some will always like it; some will always not like it.
Congratulations on your efforts so far!
