Installing Carbon Fiber Hood

Forum Bot · 05-17-2004

Materlials Needed:
- 10mm socket
- Pry Bar
- Carbon Fiber Hood

Step 1:
Remove your stock hood. Start by detaching the washer nozzle lines from the hood.

Step 2:
Place some rags between the hood and the car. This keeps you from scratching the paint.

Step 3:
Remove the 4 bolts(2 on each side) with your 10mm socket.

Step 4:
Even though the bolts are removed the hood stays attached to the hinges. There is an epoxy type material on the hood. Use a crowbar to pry it off. It's really easy.

Step 5:
Remove the Hood.

Step 6:
Open the box containing your new hood.

Step 7:
Clean up your mess of peanuts.

Step 8:
Remove the bubble wrap.

Step 9:
Bolt the new hood onto your car. Shut the hood and use the levelers to make the hood sit evenly on the car.

Step 10:
Stand back and enjoy the great job you did on the hood.
