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.

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.

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
