this thing just keeps growing and growing... LOL  Hey how are you going to stretch the hood since it tapers as it goes front to back.  I have the same problem with my hood, I think i need to have a new one rolled to acomodate taper and length, but mabe you have a better idea?  Anyways man looking forward to seeing how this continues to develope.

It is such a sloppy fit to start with it will be a better fit 5" longer. You could allways just tweak the curve a little and it shouldn't show.

I could just start over and make a new one, you remmember I made this one right?

I am just going to cut off the front and make an extension with a new bead.
