Challenger SRT8 Hood test fit

CoolVSRT8 · 11-17-2009, 05:04 PM

Well i had some spare time today and decided to install the chally hood thank you cleavland pic a part once again!

Well in a nut shell its too wide and too long! thats all there is to it, as long as you or the person doing the work is good with aluminum cutting and welding its a breeze to narrow and shorten it.

Most important you can use your LX hood hinges and the chally hood lines up to your LX hood latch.

anyways more on this later heres some pics.
Its dark in my garage sorry! ill take more pics in the day light

lol its going to be sweet when its done im thinking i got a spare lx hood, i may cut out the center portion of the chally hood and retrofit it into the spare 300 hood i have.
im brainstorming ideas here

Obviously you or somebody you know can do some major body work. Me not so lucky, but cant wait to see what it looks like when your done.
