What did you use, a stack of washers? I have seen ads for hood spacers in my British Ford mags but was never able to figure out a way to do it to mine, other than the washer thing. I think you need more to raise it up some more. But that is just me talking.

Is your car over heating or something? Don't see a single reason why you would install that....
RE: HOOD SPACERS with PICs - Focus man. Focus. - 09-11-2010
Front and back? I think I am going to have to try and move my hindges forward as my CF hood doesn't fit quite right.

it isnt over heating i just wanted to see how it looked. it might have cost me $10 and took less then 10min to install.
all in all i probably wont leave them in for the long term.

RE: HOOD SPACERS with PICs - j3rt - 09-11-2010
I must say, it does not look "modded", it looks "installed wrong".
RE: HOOD SPACERS with PICs - xXCMGXx - 09-12-2010
hey your hood is open. you should close it.
RE: HOOD SPACERS with PICs - Focus man. Focus. - 09-12-2010
It's done in England/Europe all the time. Just like the rusty hood.

RE: HOOD SPACERS with PICs - tetra - 09-12-2010
I'm not really a big fan of that, a lot of people will tell you your hood is open lol
But to each his own!

My thoughts exactly. Everyone has their opinion, but the owners is the only one that counts. Why do you think Canadian Tire sells so much stick on crap. LOL
