Some buicks and BMW's have a front tilt hood that slides forward over the headlights and upper grille. You should see the older vettes. They even had half of the fender attached too. I think it would be pretty cool to get a set from an older (80-90's) Buick or BMW. Remember that it's not just a slap the hinges on kinda thing. There is probably going to be some bracing issues as well as the new latch assembly. If I were you I would go to a pick-n-pull and take lots of pictures and measurements and then measure the tC and see if it is even do-able. Good luck!

 

DONE!
Hood opens and closes normally and the hood latch/hook rests on the front pate;

That looks retarded lol.

 

It's definately.. different.
To each their own?

 

It's a shield for rock chips, so it doesn't hit the windshield.

 

....I dunno I actually kinda like it

definatly gets points for being innovative.

Got any more pics? does it still sit well when closed and what does the hinge look like??

 

I don't think it's retarded, but it def doesnt look good.

 

I've seen it up close and it looks awesome! I was going to post matts car but I was beaten to the punch.

 

It's not awful.
It's one of the mods I would never have, but like seeing someone else have it.

 

thanks for updating with more pics.

yeah i defiantly dig it. I would never do it, but I still really like it.

 

nice to see it be done, props to you sqtc07 for getting it done.
