got a cf hood with 2 vents in in what would u recomened to use to cover them for the winter months so no snow get in there....aslo what to use for a hood prop so i dont twist it

 

SS hood liner. not really certain if it will attach to a CF hood though.

 

mmm ya really i thought maybe tape the under side or somethign

 

use sum 3m double sided tape for the hood liner. maybe alil duck tape just incase.

 

ah i gotcha. i was going for something clean. some gorilla duct tape might hold. although you might be left with some residue when you take it off later on. then again, there is goo gone.

 

yep goo gone will solve that last issue

 

i would be applying it on the under side so dont matter if there is resadu...now what can i use for a prop to keep hood oprn without it bending and what not

 

im not to sure, maybe you could go to a shop and have them fabricate some pieces to fit out of some material

 

bump for more ideas on what ot use to prop my hood so not to damage it

My vented CF hood came with a fiberglass insert that is removable. I usually only remove it during shows. Insert funnels the water to exit above the grille. As for a hood prop I usually just use some sort of pole. Anything from a 2x4 to a broomstick to a pool stick. I did see someone use a small adjustable rod that resembled a curtain or shower curtain rod before. A cheap way cover your vents would be to just tape some plastic to the underside of the hood around the vents.

 

ok kool cause snow is coming lol...one i need a pole for each side to keep the hood from flexing

 

I just use one pole and place it under the latch

 

thats wut i thought lol...i got the vis invader hood with a candy apple yellow clear coat on it with a small tinge of gold flake

 

Goo gone should not be used on automotive paint or gelcoat. It is too abrasive.

 

if you have your old hood put it back on cause the carbon fiber can spider crack real easy in the winter cause of temp change

 

i dont havd my stock hood no more does anyon eleaving there cf hood on in the winter time//

 

I leave mine on all year round. However the car is parked during the winter months. It stays outside all year round until I get a house with a garage lol
