any of you guys know a direct bolt on hood that does not need hood pins?
I can only speak for the hoods that I've painted and installed which include Cervini, Harwood, Design Concepts, H.O. Fibertrends and Maier Racing.
These hoods are bolt on and do not requrie hood pins for safety ?

I think its a bit much too, but gotta do what you gotta do sometimes....
orginally bought a 2.5", was lucky I bought it local and they took it back on exchange no charge.

its growing on me since coming back from paint too.......

I would go 2.5"... i think the 4" looks kinda goofy... sorry r.barn

pony guy, thanks for the reply to my question, what i meant by lift off was extended. i worded it wrong, i meant the ones that go to the windshield... wondered if yall have ever seen one that was still windshield compatable... i dont think so tho.... eh... i guess i could trim it back an inch or so...
