welding evil eyes onto your stock hood is the cheapest option available. there is little metal work involved.

or just buy one already done.

How about putting eyes on a stock hood? Do I have to bend the metal to match the hood? Roll the lips? Do the seals above the headlights stay in place?

Ive been wanting to do this but Im still kinda clueless.

I don't kno if your looking for aftermarket or not....but I have 2 ram air sunfire hoods, both have evil eyes done to them.......

One is a Class Glass ram air hood
Second one is a Rk Sport ram air

1st one is in better shape but both are decent, they will need some finish sanding and painted....

Looking to get 200 each

I would be interested in some pics of those, eric.

Also, check out http://whiteboy.ca/node/4 they are (or he is, i dunno) here in ontario, somewhere. Personally, that's a bit too much cash for me, but i'm still kinda considering getting one from him, myself.

Yeah i went really cheap on mine and just painted the tops of my headlights for the moment. doesnt look too bad. i actullay get comments on it all the time. and i knoticed that it set sort of a trend in my area. seems even dodge ram trucks dont look too bad with painted evil eyes. Just make sure you use plastic paint. and in my case it was easy cause my car is white. matched perfectly.

Since this thread is back. I love your hood too considering its on my car now. Buhahahaha. What a weird coincidence.

Not hating on the painted eyes but you cant beat the real thing.

Evil eye hoods are like vaginas. You can try as hard as you want to make a fake one, but it still will never be the same.
