"Flipped" My Lid. How To Put Your Hood In Your Trunk
Oh no! Look what I have in my trunk



Here's what I did:
1) Fold down rear seats
2) fold front seats and push both as far forward as possible
3)put hood in w/ top facing front, placing passenger corner in first
4)wiggle
5)adjust
6)flip corner up onto rear seat
7)wiggle
8)slide down on to trunk floor



Why is it there???


























WOOT!!

------------

Up close of vents

Let's just say it was at a price I couldn't pass up. Otherwise I wouldn't have even thought about doing a hood

What specs? Like weight? The stock hood was about 2 times heavier IMO, maybe 2.5-3 times. It had a few fitment issues, but I took off the rubber bumpers that you can adjust and now it sits flush. I'll be putting a small patch of foam there to prevent rubbing.

You all would kill me if I said the price
