Looks Killer! I love cervini's product, as I have their Cobra R hood on my '93 LX. Perfect fit and workmanship.
Question- Is there a hood latch safety issue requiring hood pins to prevent lift off at high speeds? I have had 3 friends loose there hoods, because they relied soley on the oem latch. I have been using the FRP stainless hood pin kit with no problems and NO RUST soo far(1 year). Thanks for showing the pic's, very nice ride!

Houndog,
I agree, Thanks
Mike,
The stock hood is around 18-20 lbs. Where the Cervini's 3" is close to 44
But you know what...it's worth the look
BoltAction,
I have taken this hood up to at least 150 last year out to the WFC3, and it held. BUT..I do plan on installing a set of hood pins for added insurance...I dont want to "purge" the hood off down the 1320
