I don't mean to draw attention away from your hood (looks great!), but what did you do with your orange corners? Is that just a Bat overlay? That's what I need for my ride.

Ah, on the inside. That's why it looks so clean. I would try that if I had the courage to open the housing. Might get a second set of headlight housings on eBay just in case I screw it up.

the holes had to be cut for the nozzle to fit. i had to adjust the latch on the car so that the hood will lock. no hood pins, cf sit lower than i thought. no gaps between the hood and the car

so you dont really see a need for the pins and the hood sits nice and low so it doesnt shake too much? i've got a long trip coming up and am kinda worried about that.
