Haha. A minor inconvenience in the grand scheme of things. Much harder will be figuring out a hood latch mechanism since the core support and other metal in the front will be drastically altered for increased air flow. (The stock grill will still be used and contribute to the "sleeper" look.)

Didn't notice that. Hmmmmm, you could put hinges on the front of the hood (tilt forward) and get latches off a Vette or Saab and somehow work them into the firewall/cowl? That would add to the "Man that car is really different than any other".=P~
