hey

This has to be the dumbest question ever but here goes. By the way I did not find anything in a search. How do you close your hood? Drop it from a few inches or push it closed? Everyone is telling me that you should not push an aluminum hood closed.

Thanks

 

Drop it like it's hot..........bump

 

i push mine near the very front on the rib where it is stronger, palm down spreading out the force from my hand so as not to bend it

 

Yep.

And I believe the owner's manual even says what height to drop it from.

 

I just drop it and if it doesn't close then I just use my hand and apply pressure on the hood.

 

Good call about the manual! It says to drop the hood from 12 inches. I really need to read that thing! I would feel like a total *** if I dented the hood while closing it. Thanks for the input!

 

i never open my hood lol

 

should just close it, and push it in.

aluminium hood, not like lancer steel hood.

 

slowly put the hood down and then push lightly towards the edge until it clicks in.. yes its aluminum but NOT that fragile

 

i didn't say it was fragile.

 

if your talking to me then it wasnt directed to you

 

if this is for me, i don't know what you're talking about. It wasn't directed at you.

 

lower it until its just propped up and then i SIT ON IT!

 

And to think you drive an EVO..

 

then you are in the wrong forum
