Nice car, welcome aboard. I have the same car that I am putting together now. On your car on the fender am I seeing some emblem or is it a reflection. If its a emblem can you tell me what it is so I know what I am missing.

Nice looking car!  I kinda like the stock hood with the black on there myself.  Have fun with it and welcome aboard.
