Yeah, mine are sitting in my garage waiting for me to grow the balls to start cutting holes in my hood.

After seeing Eagle's car in person, I REALLY want them now. Just put the blindfold on and start cutting chuck.

The problem is that the cost of a replacement hood is more than the cost of having someone who knows what they're doing put them in.

I'm absolutely convinced that only the first cut will be nerve wracking. Once you're committed it's probably a breeze.

I have a spare hood to practice on. If it warms up a little bit maybe I can get EW to help document the install or if it goes terribly wrong, what not to do. |

Can you tell me the distance from the leading edge of the front of the hood to the rear of the centre vent .. I have an 6 x ITB kit for my car and I suspect there won;t be clearance with the centre vent fitted BUT it would be useful to know
