i just bought a used evo vii front end conversion(babyboba29's old one), and i need some help. i need to put the strike on the hood to keep the hood closed. I looked at my stock hood, and i don't see how it comes off. i don't know if it matters that i have a 2003, but i called my local stealership and the guy at the parts counter was no help. can you guys let me know if you can remove yours. thanks.

 

bump! hey kev man i didnt kno u actually got this,,,

 

hey kev...my digicam is out of battery roite now...but its just 4 bolts...right on the hinges and whallaaaa.....helps if you have 1 or 2 friends tho...oh take off the winsheild fluid squiters first

 

Pete...WTF?.....you didnt know how the hood came off?...now im just gonna blab cus im waiting ofr the 45ec rule to go away....so....what else is new?....is everything already painted?....strike...you got me confused?....use hood pin....less people would ask questions

 

lol no to be honest rigo ,,,, im just to lazy to walk out to my car wow im lazy!!!

 

lol....lmao....did you install your hood?....

 

are you taking about removing the hood latch? or are you talking about taking the hood itself off? i have a feeling your talking about the latch .. ?? I dont think you can get it off, can ya? hmmm <scratches head>

 

i got it taken care of. you can't take your "strike" off of the hood because the way it is installed. i got the latch that came with it. rigo...i took the hood off in about 1 minute, that was the easy part. i just started scratching my head when i had to take the strike off and i saw no way to get to it. i'm waiting to hear back from the guy at the body shop about getting it all painted. hopefully it'll be done soon!

rigo and pete....you guys know anyone who paints for not too much $$$. i had a set of skirts lined up that were black already and the guy sold them to someone else. i have a set that i can get for a good price, but they're thunder grey.
