Cianci Victory Hood - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

TypicalStateGuy · 11-14-2006, 08:46 PM

I know how much people praise this hood and what not and I'll tell you something.....

they are absolutely right!!! This thing fits like a damn dream. It's great. It only took me ~20 mins to install and get adjusted to make it look good. I really can't believe how good it looks on the car and well it fit. My stepdad even said "man, that fits great", and he's hard to please

I just need to get it painted and install some pins and then I'll show some final pics of it.

I don't have anyway to host this and I don't feel like opening an account somewhere, so if someone wants to see it tell em and I'll email them.

Ryan and the Cianic crew will get my business when I can afford it and at the right time. They are very well known for their quality glass!

Have you guys noticed an improvement in throttle response with this hood?

I have a Cianci NACA hood. My dealings were not as good as yours. They shipped fast but after that it went down hill.The hood didn't fit as good as I hoped. When I first put it on the thing would not close. I ended up having to use two penny washers under each bolt to get it to close. This left the aft end a little proud of the fenders. Second problem was that one corner by the driverside headlight is curled up a little bit. Third was most concerning to me, when I went to put the bolts in the first time it seamed like whoever attached it to the wood frame corners for shipping got it a little tight and stripped one hole(pulled threads to be exact. I had some questions for Ryan that I emailed him several times and got no reply. I guess once he got my money it was over for the friendly service I got pryor to paying.
