No... he means the hood I bought off El Diablo.

Abdullah..
the hood is sitting in the box.. in my garage. I have a GTR hood on the way.
I think I am going to use the GTR hood. I like the idea of the bigger vents to let some of the heat rise out of the engine bay while stuck in traffic.

Im trying to decide what to do with it. El Diablo doesn't want it back because he's going GTR as well.......I think.

Anyway... got any suggestions?

I already decided on the GTR.... I was talking about suggestions for what to do with the "El Diablo" hood I have.

Here is a pic of it.

Sometimes I think about hanging it on the wall.... how many people can say they have a piece of "El Diablo"..... not to mention it was owned by a Prince!!!

Quick question, the stock struts are too stiff for the lighter CF hood, what do you guys use in their place?

You would just remove the original one and use something to hold it up. Has anyone tried anything else?
