Your CHP is coming along nicely.
 If you need to use a taller hood to clear the 351, I suggest going with a 2" cowl hood. That would be a subtle change. And since you will soon be taking the car to paint, now is the perfect time to do that. Thanks for posting more pics! EDIT: And your E plates were Priority mailed to you yesterday

Update, I am still in the process of getting estimates for a complete paint job. I want to do a correct CHP paint job.The bodyside plastic molding and the matching moulding strip on the front and rear bumper covers are to be grey in color. Wow, that is almost impossable to find the correct color on the net and off any color charts. It just dawned on me that maybe there is a chance that the moulding color might be on the back side if I take one off and look. Low and behold it is the grey color I need to repaint my mouldings to!!! So I went to the automotive paint store and the mixed the correct grey color to the inner side of my moulding. I was happy until I went to pick up the special color grey at the tune of $75.00 for one pint of Chroma One paint. Oh well why worry about money at this point LOL LOL.........I am in the process of trying to find out the correct color for the bottom of the windshield trim and the windshield cowl plastic piece that the wipers go through, As well as the trim around the side windows. I think It may be trim black but Iam not sure. Any help in finding the correct color in these areas will be greatly appriciated. Rich

For the black trim pieces, I told my body guy to paint them "matte black". I'm not sure of the exact paint code for that.
Guess my application to the UASSP will never get approved now!
