My CF MI Hood!

I got this last Tuesday but wasn't able to take pics because of all the rain we got in SoCal.

Hood went on easily, just had to dremeled the latch down a bit so that the hood catch would catch the latch. All in all, it was a great fit and looks fantastic!




Peek-A-Boo!


My pictures really doesn't do it justice. I'm not sure why the pictures are so grainy. Maybe it's the low light.

Thanks again Garm for the fast ship and excellent product.

Here is an up close picture. I still don't know why my camera is taking such grainy photos.



The latch mod I did was just sanding down the latch on the hood. Took the paint off and filed down the metal a bit after that I use some grease to cover the exposed metal. Took about 5mins with a dremel.



You really can't tell anything was done to it. It pops open nice and easy, just like the OEM hood when you pull on the hood release lever.
