it is done with a simple new hinge between the hood and the old one, took me 2 weekends of working on it and taking the hood on and off 4 times to get it right. And deff a 2-3 person job. :relief:
I spent total of like $7 at the store on parts and some I did not end up using. :lalala:

Mine is bad luck you don't want it. It seems like if something is going to happen to a car it will find mine. I got the hood repainted from rock chips and a rock hit it on the way home, so now it has a new chip and it hadn't been an hour since i left the bodyshop.

Gothbox 05-13-2007 10:11 PM

Looks good,I love your paint.Just a couple of questions.
What holds the other side down when it is closed?
And can you take some pictures of the hinges if you dont mind giving your secret away?

nothing holds down the driver side it moves a little in high cross winds going down the hywy but I am not worried about it.

I am going to hold on to the info just a little bit longer. :lalala:
