CF Hood received! - Toyota Yaris Forums

How does it install, if I might ask?

Never replaced a hood on any of my cars. Just bolts on?

This one and most out there is the bolts only. Many aftermarket hoods might need a "custom' solution for the hood latch. This is one of them...there have been two resolutions. One is to do what Garm did which is to essentially add a spacer and the other is to drill out part of the receiver on the car. I am gonna be checking out Garm's solution because it will allow me to swap hoods when I want in 10 minutes. I don't want to leave it on during the winter months to prevent snow, ice, and scratch issues.
