I know there are some mixed reviews about my hood set up but  I love it. I just got the car running after the accedent in Jan. It so nice to have my baby back!!!!!!!!

I like it alot better than the six pack hood scoop.

I'm not a big fan of putting hood scoops on cars they didn't come with , but that does look good   :2thumbs:

I like it!  :cheers:

I have a hood for my 1968 Charger with a hole cut in it for a tunnel ram that is no longer being used.  This would be a good option to go with.

Badass! I like the hole set up, big rims, T/A scoop and passenger side mirror. How much cooler can it get!?  :2thumbs:

Edit:
For those who don't like it, the way I see it is that they are used to seeing chargers being built as DOH cars or back to stock condition. I like to think out of the box.
Awesome set up once again!

Love the hood and wheels and the front spoiler...although not usually a big fan of the door inserts being painted, but your car makes it work :2thumbs:

Did you buy the hood as is from a vendor or did you make the hood using a flat fiberglass hood with this scoop?

That looks cool, I'm not big on the rims though

Thanks Guys!!!  I tried to make it look diffrent, I go to the local Nifty Fifty's Car show and there is another red 68 charger there with the resto look. I got a dodge to be diffrent, Cant stand Chevy's because every one has one.   The hood is a fiberglass hood with the fiberglass scoop added. I would tell you the company but I'm still trying to get some money back from them because the hood made bubbles once out in the sun.  I love the Argonsal low gloss look, it goes with the top.  I was thinking of powedercoating the centercaps and center 3 spoke spinners gloss black to Mach the car. I want to lower it more in the rear, But I already have an 2 in lowering block in the rear, I had no Ideal the superstock springs jack the back up sooooo high.

I'm hopping in 2 years to put an 392 new age Hemi .

In my mind I thought that scoop on that car would look horrible, but now that I see the pictures it actually looks pretty cool.

The hood is different ...  I'm still liking my 6 pack hood more but all that matters is if you like it.  :Twocents:

I'm wondering what it would look like on a black car  :scratchchin:

I love the look and think it looks great in black. I wonder how it would look on a 3rd gen?
