Talking Another nuther hood thread

aight guys, got bored and wanted something new and better because my old mold didnt give me great quality and that was a result of me screwing up my plug after i paid the shop money to get it perfect so i would just rather start from scratch. Here are some beginning pics and I will keep updating until I am done.

Man... do you just have hoods lying around or what?
BTW; have you ever thought of having your hood loovered? It's something I've been thinking about lately... figured I'd ask.

(Edit...Remove offensive joke)

no not too big.....perfect for every application....i always have people that want one for a V-mount....then someone with an efan, then the people that have the stock fan and this works out for all.

I think v mounts are a cheap alternative to front mounts...

are you doing this with chopped strand or a fabric? those corners on the vent look a little sharp to make with a wet lay and fabric.
