Looks nice man! What size is that cowl hood? I'm not really a huge fan of those kind of hoods but that one looks pretty good. Gauges look really nice too! And just seeing that front bumper just makes it that much harder for me to not get one when I get my car in the shop soon...

But... Noob question: What are those two silver pieces?

The 2 painted silver pieces are termi side skirts. I have 2 more pair of them in silver ready to ship to whoever wants them. $375 shipped obo.

The 2 polished pieces are the upr handles

The hood is a Kaenen 4 1/2" cowl and is the best hood I've ever seen, I honestly think it's better than Cervini's.

Both the intakes are windstars, the one with the "Split-Port" sticker is off of a 96 the other is off of a 98.

I have to go to Ford to get my fog light bezels tomorrow.

The bumper was only $156 + 80 shipping.
The hood was $400 + 80 shipping
The fogs ran me $100 shipped for the pair
The cluster was $100 and the coolest mod I've ever done!
I got the handles brand new polished for $125 shipped, normally they are around $160

If you look in the upper grille area the little black filler panel I bought for $12, and it totally cleaned the area up a lot.
The Carriage Works black billet grille is gonna be up for sale soon since I plan to put in some black Grille Craft grilles in the top and bottom.

Where did you get the hood? I googled Kaenen and couldn't find anything.

Their website is www.kaenenfiberglass.com I got it from MPS Auto Salvage in Georgia.

I did a ton of research before I actually ordered a hood and their name came up over and over again with outstanding results.

If you're talking about the skirts, those are the same ones that I'm sending you, just yours is still sealed up in the box! damn slow-ass e-check

I got the cluster on EBay, it was supposed to be around $400, I got it for $100 brand new sealed up. It was a pretty good deal.

The hood is nowhere near where everyone thought it would be. When I was originally telling people which one I ordered they all said the same thing, "that's gonna be huge!" It's not as big as you would think. I have friends locally with cowls, one just got a 3" that turned out to be 2 1/2 from Cervinis and it's barely even noticable, it doesn't even really look like he has a cutom hood.

My stock hood was just the 99-02 v6 hood, the same as the GT hood, just no scoop.

My wheels are in the storage building behind my house. Lately I've been driving my car to the heliports to go out offshore and didn't want to waste my pretty wheels and tires on work trips so I slapped on the stock GT wheels. I even get better gas mileage since they aren't as wide. I'm going tomorrow to buy another set of wheels, some Termi's!

I got the bumper on EBay from Car Parts Wholesale, same place I got the fender and fogs and grille delete insert. My fender came in damaged and I have to destroy it, they'll credit me the cost of the fender, and when I order a new one and basically all I have to pay is shipping. It's nothing but INDIAns that seem to work for them, but all the stuff arrived in a few days. Just try not to buy sheet metal parts from them.

I plan on puting one of them on, just trying to clear of the final details of the parts I'll need to complete the job. I got the other one because I want to try to cut it up and make everything mount in a cool way on the other one, such as the aic and stuff.
