i'm in the middle of finishing a back date now. the FG hoods take an awful lot of work to fit, and can still be questionable after committing many hours trying to make it fit. budget way more time than you think you'll need if you go this route.

i tried. trimmed, re-radiused the hood lenghtwise, tweaked, shortened a hood latch to try and get it tight, etc.

i ultimately redirected my efforts to a lengthened steel short hood. i just was never happy with how we were able to get the FG to fit.

lesson learned for me, i'll stick to steel unless i build a race/track car...
