Hood heat extractors!

I picked these up from http://trackspecmotorsports.com/ and I believe they will do the trick. If my thinking is correct, not only will heat be evacuated out of the engine bay more rapidly but I will have some added down-force on the glass surface area because of the added pressure relief on the back of the fire-wall allowing air to escape upward instead of being forced downward underneith the car.

:D

So! Doug started laying down some color today, primarily the door jams and under hood area. Tomorrow morning clear goes on, then Monday the rest of the car will be getting shot. :guns:

Wow Ben, I can't wait to see what it'll look like with a fresh coat of paint.

And those vents are a nice touch. Good choice.

Bro. That looks beautiful, and so much less work/ghettoness than doing it yourself in the middle of Summer. Can't wait to see the final results!
