if i wanted to install my oem style, would u recommend me doing it myself? b/c i figured, if its an oem style c/f hood, wouldn't it be the exact same thing as installing a stock hood? i'd imagine that it'd be like taking off and on ur regular hood....and does ne one have ne pics of doing it? ne comments would help

Very simple job, just make sure you have some friends to help you because the hood is kind of big and awkward.

There are four bolts, and be sure to remove the windshield nozzles.

I did mine in less than an hour.

that is such cake, it will take at most 20 minutes, just 4 bolts and like 3 hoses

Put your hood on and see how it fits. People put them on for piece of mind and to hold their hood down so it fits tighter.

You can get them for around 20 bucks.
