Not to be mean but some hood springs would make that picture look much better than a wooden stick.

Sometimes my hood stays up, sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't I use a golf umbrella to hold it up.

Man, I love how it's slammed. Really though, I use a shovel to prop my hood for now... It doesn't feel right.

Lol not me! I thought they were insignificant too. But for $44, I put some decent ones in.

That hood is heavy. You'll be surprised how much lighter it feels with new struts. I was holding it up with a floor Jack piece, but then it slipped one day. Afraid of possible decapitation..I went ahead and changed out the struts myself. It was easy for the first one, but a ***** to put the second one on.

I was holding the hood up with my shoulder. And it has to be FULLY opened to get the bolt in right. Mother ****. That said.,,I like the OPs gold rims.

Alot of cutting length wise it fits great it the contours that are a pain ypu cant see in the pictures but there are a few strategically placed bolts to compensate for that. I have some nice dress bolts with colored washers that match my wheels that will be added soon the lip is off right now for repairs.




On a side note i didnt know you still frequented the forums although im not on much either

wow it looks good, I've been thinking about installing a spoiler but I don't want to.. lol, I want that rear windshield spoiler though! it looks sweet. I like the skirts, too bad I have a 96 bumper with 97 trunk that is shaved. so I avoid installing the skirts.. I am thinking about installing a front lip painted gloss black sometime soon, I haven't really done anything to my car the past year and I feel the need to add some stuff to it again. I just needed a break to catch up on some things cause I was going all in last year getting it what i want, and I have it where I want..just needs some small additional stuff to it, hope to do that sometime soon.

Great looking car luke, I like the wheel gap. I wish I could lower mine like that, I only did 1.5" to be safe on my ball joints lol.
