RE: 4" cowl hood

my Hardwood came with all the holes and bolts to remount the factory
safety catch.

everything transfered over, mine latches and lifts just like a factory hood.

My 4" Hardwood hood.

wanted 2.5" myself but needed 4 to clear engine upgrade.

forward visibilty sucks but shouldnt be too big a prob after i get used to it.

4 inch cant be that bad, i see around a 6 inch one fine.

RE: 4" cowl hood

i think 4' looks kinda silly... unless you need the clearence. 2.5 looks awesome.

here's my buddies GT with 2.5

weather or not its a lift off shouldnt affect your wipers, since their back on the seperate cowl panel.

oh i didnt know you meant the extended cowl. lift offs also come in the regular just to the cowl style too i have a 5 inch one. um no im thinking from the pics i see you cant use the wipers with a extended cowl hood, but i could be wrong.
