Well, it has been long over due and I have finally got my hood scoop
painted. Got it glossy Black. I had our local paint shop
fill in the pit holes and did what was needed before it was painted.
Then in error, they painted it red, and had to repaint it again, only this
time black. They cough it right after it was painted the wrong color, so
I never saw it painted red. But the final product looks good and
works good too. Cost to paint it was only about $150, much less then
I was thinking would have been.
Dimension of the base for the hood scoop are shown in the drawing to the
