Thanks everyone for the comments.

As far as the hood goes, it fit perfectly on the car it was previously on so I bought it. I don't like the gaps, but for the price and engine bay temps I'll live with it.

The wheels, ehhhh, I don't like them either. Came with the car when I bought it. Different wheels are on the list of changes just not quite the priority.

I don't know why I typed R1 as I'd like a 94-95. for the typo.

The pinstriping definitely adds a different flair to the car and will stay on until the car eventually gets a paint job.

Both MB. Typical. I still hate that color. Better do the motor swap fast before the new one pops. Over 100k on the original motor is a ticking time bomb.

yep, that hood looks good but doesn't appear to fit well that is why I am so scared to purchase one, also the pin stripe has to go. . I know it wasn't your fault, but gots to go. You are very lucky to own those bad boys and take care of them.

They didn't come from the factory with pinstripes so they were a dealer option which would normally be stripe tape hardly worth anything regardless of what a dealership may asked have asked. My car had them new and I pealed them off in the dealership parking lot needless to say I didn't pay dime. I don't even recall it being listed on the window sticker I'll have to see if I can dig it up.
