You probably got to drill, I can't see where it would bolt on to?

There are two different stock heights....and the other one the hood is straight up.

Still nice although. I also like your paint.

I've thought about getting an off-brand (tien too expensive) just b/c I hate the way one side of my hood sags-down when its propped. Its a small thing... but I fuggin hate it.

Nice car too. It's nice to see something a little different on this site.
and damn Rockinfunzone thats a nice avatar

Couldnt you just mount them lower on the hood to make it raise it higher? Or do they mount on the hinges? ...probably

Ive actually wanted to get them because of saggy-side-hood thing also...but am concerned about them ripping my fiberglass/cf hood
