    I have been wanting one of these for a good while. finally bit the bullet and shelled out the $100 for it.
    Is it a sin that i painted it?
    I made it my own

    I had originally bought this cheaper, square Cal-Custom scoop, which got the same treatment to the chrome, but i just wasnt happy because it wasnt what i really wanted

    To paint it is not a sin but paying $100 definately is a sin.
    I got the exact same one for 11 bucks on ebay a year ago.:D

    you just made me vomit.
    I have been watching them for 4 months. havnt seen one go for less than $90.
    I rarely treat myself, and i just got my tax money. You think it looks good?

    looks good but would look better with some pinstriping on it. I also see them going on ebay for nothing shy of $80 but then agian its ebay where rust is worth gold. -Jon

    I dig the pinstripe idea also, but it dosnt fit the car.
    Its going on my '79 malibu, and i will not run it all the time. Maybe for a friday night, when im just out for fun. Ill take the hood off, and a 1.5 '' carb spacer, and think im cool as hell.
    I love pinstriping, it just dosnt fit this car i dont think.

  8. Hell, go ahead & stripe it. The striping won't fit the car. The car doesn't fit this board.

    Find something else that is strangely out of place & you'll have a trifecta of out of place shit. :rolleyes:
