In an early vision of making my TA look like a GTA clone as a result of a front fender bender destroying my Power Bulge hood, I added regular (non vent) fenders and flat hood before I painted her. However, I wish I hadn't since I now have a different vision and really, REALLY, want my Power Bulge hood again!
