    woo-hoo!

    WOW....and it came in one piece and looks decent!! FRIGGIN AMAZING!!
    How many times I have ordered Isuzu parts and they come half-a** packaged with dents, scratches or broken ends.

    Someone should cast a mold of the insert and design/construct it with a more durable flexible weather resistant material...I'm sure there would be a lot of buyers.

    Wow, so pretty. Makes me want one just to save in case of disaster.

    And just look how proud your pup was of it.

    Cyronman,

    Yes count me in. I really want a CF insert but you can count me in if it is affordable.

    Beej,

    You would do well to do the whole back side in fiberglass resin just to seal out moisture & prevent bubbling/cracking from under the paint.

    Lay at least one layer of woven cloth with that resin. Resin alone will not give you any real strength as far as cracking.

    A polyurethane insert would be sweet. Or better yet, a damned hood that doesnt need the insert, heh. Someone get to work on making a 1-piece aluminum hood for us. Now!
