How to correctly DIY the washer nozzle holes on my CF Hood!

They did not drill the washer nozzle holes so I need to figure out how safe it is to drill them myself, the side to drill and how big of a whole to drill etc.

I ask cause I do not want to experiment with a new hood I drove over and hour to pick up Why ruin a perfectly good hood cause I failed to ask questions.

dont drill your perfectly good cf hood...

go to junkyard anf find nozzles that are on the wiper themselves, or just have a bottle of windex (with extension) in your car so you can spray on the go

Yea, drilling into CF is risky business. I wouldn't do it,could splinter the hood. Just mount the nossles on the plastic right above the hood and below the windshiled wipers.

Ok,

Well its not a perfect fit by any means but it will do fine I think. I am just not sure, I think it's a bit short on the front end! I compare it to some one elses pics and they are a bit short also. Maybe this is the way they come

Anyway here is the gallery link:

Now some samples and a pre-show of the Hood Lip before paint





shows the unpainted hood lip + the offset of the hood to the fender and headlight! Too much space here.

Hey it looks great! to help the fit of the hood, there are two rubber piecies one on each side of the car, screw them both down and it will lower the hood to make it fit more correctly. those rubber piecies are one on the front right of the motor behind the headlight and the other on the left behind the headlight.

Where!? Gonna check that now! BRB

Bdiddy

yea, because my stock hood was never fitting right, so i checked and there are those two rubber mounts that can be screwed up or down to make the hoods fit, just screw them both down untill the hood fits to your liking.

Yeah, that helped allot but there is still a bit of a gap on the Passengers side like before, just MUCH more acceptable than before. Thanks!

Sly_dawg19 I really do not understand what you mean? I mean I can sort of visualise this but I think I might have to jerry rig this

Bdiddy

no problem man. I thought that would help.

Damn looks like no sun all week. That means no pics of the hood in full sunlight where it looks it's best.
