I got a weird request. But could someone with a Cobra R hood take a pic from the drivers seat? In VA we have a hood height law, I need to see if a 2.5" would pass. Thanks guys.

Gotta love the Cervini's jargon. You can't deny the fact that they make some good-looking stuff that lasts forever and it won't break the bank.

Okay, I've pretty much made up my mind on Cervini's Cobra R hood. How much prep work on average is needed to paint this hood? Thanks.

Wipe it with wax/greas remover, scuff it and shoot it!

I prepped my hood at work, I sanded the top side with 400 grit on a DA, the bottem side I just scuffed with a red scotch pad until the underside wasn't shiny anymore. Cleaned it off with wax/grease remover, sealed it and painted it. Very easy. I got some better pictures coming soon if you want to see them.

You should also wipe it down with the wax/grease remover before sanding. You can actually grind silicon and other stuff into the gelcoat when scuffing it, making it much harder for the w/g remover to get it out after sanding.
