Custom hood and front ends

Ive seen a few people asking about this lately. So here is a link for cowl and custom hoods and front clips. Theyve got other body panels too I believe.

Heres a link to pics of a hood installed as well.

One of the hoods offered I think is the same one that was on rumblefish's former dually.

I really like the R/T hood.
Anyone got an R/T hood on their 1st gen? Id really like to see an actual truck and not some 3d model...

I like em. Mine will get one of em eventually, about the time I get it repainted. Probably the raised cowl hood so I can have more room for something extra in the middle. But the r/t hood would be neat to set up for the air flow.

FYI, if you are going to swap to the 70's birdbath style hood, you need to use the cowl panel from the 70's truck also.
