Here are the original Ram Air hood, ‘new’ fenders, and front & rear valances in the Ram before taking them to the soda blaster.

The sucky part about this whole thing is that the ‘blasters kept my stuff for over a month, and it turned out the soda blasting didn’t really work very well. The hood was so etched I needed to spend an afternoon sanding it down anyway, and the fenders suffered the usual front end damage these cars are famous for (the hood’s longer than you think, people). Didn’t get a lot done during that time except nit noids that I didn’t get pics of (mostly wasted time).
