does anyone know how i can get my hood on my dc teg to have that popped up look by the whipers like the pic shown below???? thanks

 

Use washer's to raise the hood. I think you might need longer bolts but can't remember.

There is some shop on here that sells a "kit"

mostly people from NORCAL do this, but i belive they use just washers.

 

so i all i need to do is use bigger washers with the same bolt thats in there???? and is this more just for looks or does it serve a purpose? will anything bad happen while driving due to the hood being popped up like that?

 

Some people might giggle at your not-so-straight body lines but other than that, i don't think so. I've seen it done on superhonda on DC's with an intake filter placed up in that area behind the strut tower, i guess like a ram air sort of thing.

 

yea use washers until you get the desired height

 

its actually better for you motor..it was proven to get like 45% more air or something like that

lol its true, im from norcal and i see alot of people doing it, imma do it too ;D

 

I think the only reason for this is for looks, only actual benefit besides that would be to help defrost your windshield in the winter from the heat coming out from the engine bay.

Magazines and TV are the two best sources of information.

I pity the fool who relies on research and hard data.

 

LMAO yes with washer you too can have that " hey I just got into an accident with the front of my car " look.

Only thing that's useful for is high horsepower cars on a track who need the airflow for cooling purposes....
