What kind of aluminum are you using? is this the same type as what the hood itself is made of?

Good job Mike! Looks great, and the stay tuned for NA2 hood will be me :biggrin:

I will be checking this thing out tomorrow at the shop. It will be nice to get a hood with OEM quality and fitment with the this look. Looking forward to getting my car in the shop, now just get those other NSXs done so I can :tongue:

Great job! The hood looks awesome. How much labor is involved in this?

 

[BlKeViL]

No less than 70 hours labor times.

 

[Kitaka]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

Will the spare tire have to be removed with your design?

Omg, my first impression was "Nice" then ..... 70hrs... lets say even with a cheap body shop rate at $45/hr. then the hood would be $3150.00 at least

Yes, if someone willing to pay me what I want.

How much for the hood???

 

[nsxtcy85]

Bondo much?

 

[goldNSX]

Interesting. I have a hood left here...

 

[BlKeViL]

Bondo much?

Nope, thats why I spent so much labor time on it.

 

[HondaHeat]

How did you attach the outside lip to the hood vent opening?
Panel bonding, rivits, or welding?
Nice looking job.

Tig welded, no rivits for sure....all welded.

 

[HondaHeat]

That's a long bead to weld on some very thin metal. Must of been very hard not to warp or distort. Looked like some rivits on the inside that's why I asked. Again, nice looking job.

Yes its, very thin alluminum on the hood. The rivits kinda looks is from the oem hood...not us.

Does you 70 hour labor include waiting for the paint to dry, etc or it's strickly hands on time?
