No problems with mine cracking at all...

TickleTimeTim · 03-20-2011, 12:29 PM

hmm. stupid question im sure, but is fitment flush? and is it just a matter of unbolt old hood, bolt on new?

cali yaris · 03-20-2011, 01:48 PM

You have to finish it and paint it, then you can bolt it on. And the minor hood latch mod as discussed before.

thought i remembered hearing about the hood latch.hmmm...good easter gift..

Freedan · 04-01-2011, 04:13 PM

TickleTimeTim you can fix the hood latch "problem" with a dremel in about 3-5mins. All you have to do is grind off the paint of the latch and apply a little grease.

I really think that the latch is the right size but the amount of paint they used makes the latch just a bit over sized for the hood catch. Anyways, it's a quick fix and you don't need to take out take out/drill your hood catch.

Hope that puts your mind at ease about getting this great hood.

TickleTimeTim · 04-03-2011, 01:34 PM
