Oh Yeah! It's the Poison Spyder Hood Louvre panel for a 2007- JK. The panel was close enough that I couldn't resist it.

Looks nice. What is that other narrowed truck in the picture?

I was thinking the same. How does the spider hood do for keeping temps down? Is there a noticeable difference?

I would actually like this except welded in instead of riveted.

In the background is a pinched full size Bronco.

Can't give a temp difference as it has gone on at the end of a motor swap. It had a hole in the hood from a previous owner scoop.

'Bout time too! ;)
We've been waffling back and forth over the different Jeep louvers here on the forums for several years now. Might be others, but yours is the first I remember seeing actually done.

Good job! Thanks

not a big deal to put some parts from another vehicle on a bronco, well to some extent. I mean I have a NV3550 and that is out a TJ or Liberty.

Has anyone looked at using the Jeep mirrors on a Bronco?

Robert

Yep, I have older style jeep mirrors on mine (CJ IIRC) mounted to the window frame. Some minor mods to the brackets to fit around the little gutter and another minor mod to one side arm.

And Astro hydroboost and master cylinder, GM tie rod ends... It's a mutt.

Dusty if you tweeked the sides like 1 degree it would be perfect. Or if you added a lill' point to the front. JK guys wouldn't notice either change since they don't have a raised center.

I think that you are a genius. It looks more like it was designed for a "built" Bronco instead of a Heep. As said, the angle is almost a direct fit. In fact the whole assembly looks much more Bronco-like than the raised hood bubbles and scoops that have been used over the years. In fact a lot of the parts being made for the you-know-what look like they belong on a Bronco. I say go for it.
