Finally Got My Challenger Hood On

I finally got my Challenger-style hood on. Man this has been a journey. I ordered this thing back in June. Took awhile to come in, then took awhile to schedule a pickup (I ordered it from Berry Dodge in Corsicana, TX and they offered to meet me in Waco). Then it took even longer to get into the shop (was mostly getting hail damage fixed and there was a long wait). Then the shop didn't start on the hood for another week (makes no sense, thanks Maxwell Collision Center). Then when the shop finally unboxed it, and it turns out there was quite a bit of damage to the hood. There were dings, bends, folds, and all sorts of stuff. Maxwell tried to blame it on Berry Dodge, Berry Dodge didn't want to take responsibility and then they both tried to blame it on me. I simply took the hood in the box it was in, gently laid it in the back of the truck, and drove it to the shop. It's not physically possible for that to have caused the damage that was caused to the hood, so someone was 'effing with me, but I don't know who.
Anyways, here are some pictures of the hood, finally repaired:
Maxwell Collision and Berry Dodge couldn't come to any sort of agreement and Maxwell finally agreed to fix the hood. (See pictures above) However at first they agreed to fix it for free, now they're trying to charge me for it. We'll see how all of this ends, but I've had a lot of problems with Maxwell Collision:
The hail repairs that were supposed to take 3 days took 16 days without my truck, and 3 separate trips to the shop, plus lots of unreturned phone calls and mistakes along the way.
Anyways, at least the hood is on and it looks good:

This is the perfect setup for getting a functional challenger hood.

Vararam is making a ram air style filter for our trucks taking advantage of the upward facing air intake, here are some shots from another member on another forum of the 1st prototype-
