Yeah I stopped screwing with hoods. I really don't see why I would want to make something that big as my first project back in the days. I always seem to bite off more than I can chew. But I have made a few since that were much better, but still have stopped until I make a totally different design. I am going to change my focus and make some smaller, simpler, products that are easier to make and ship.



Also James, here is how I would mount the thing. I would hold it in my hand, line up the headlights first just so the metal brackets are above the radiator support then I would slide it down and let the part that wraps around the fender hold everything in place. At this point it sits a little high where it meets the fender, and that is when you bolt the part under the hood, then move the bolt into the fender in place. Oh well, the bodyshop will get her on right and plus that crack is there by the fender so it wont hold anything in place now.
