Default Question...

I finally got a hood scoop for my 99 v6. Does anybody know where i can get a template to install it? I've heard its not all that difficult, but drilling holes into my own vehicle isn't something im crazy about.

The GT hood scoop on a 6 hood is tricky. I did this to my wife’s car, They will fit but its real close and the blots under hood are kind of at an angle.
And , you can't mount it in the same place as the GT hood, because of the lowered area in the hood. Good thing is, that there is about a 1 inch flat spot under the scoop, so you and be a little off and it will work. Drill the holes bigger than needed and use washers, this will allow you to move the scoop to make it look right. Use a long drill bit to get threw the bracing.
Under the hood where the drill came threw in the bracing , drill a 1 to 1 1/4 inch hole to get a socket wrench in .It will look good when done though.

okay, here are couple pics...the car really isnt that dirty

it looks like the hood shows you where to bolt it on, unless its just mine, not sure if V6 hoods have same design.
