  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I've completed the underside portion of a hood for #2 on the list and am starting hood layup today. That hood will be complete by mid week and I'll go right into #3's hood shortly after that.

    Would you be happy with a slightly belated birthday present? I have to clean the shop up today, put the box together for the previous hood and then start on yours :)

    Not sure yet. All depends on my schedule and weather. I don’t mind paying to have it shipped if need be.

    you should consider using Venmo, there are no transaction fees and it only takes 3 days to transfer.

    Yes Brian the bell is about to ding I’ll finish bonding the hood and the underside tomorrow. Then prep the underside for the final coat of sandable gel coat. Pop it out of the mold and do the final trimming. Last thing to do will be to test fit it on my car.
