Is there a reverse hood other than the Kaminari reverse cowl hood. Or is there anyone who has modded a stock hood to be reverse?

Search availed nothing but the Kaminari reverse cowl hood.

Kaminari is the only one that I know of.

I guess I should explain better...

I am looking for a hood like this .

I know its a civic, but I am looking to modify my scion hood to open like that..

It is for a fairly good reason, not just looks. I installed a projector in my car. see thread

Now, I want to be able to open my hood and project onto it. I'm thinking about figuring out a way to make latches and reverse the hood... Has anyone done this?

thanks. The bottom line is, i want the functionality, without spending 600-800 on a hood.

do a little searching of s10 reverse hoods, been done for years, using ... buick something hindges, while it wouldn't be a direct match, might give you a little better idea of whats involved.

i personally have done a reverse hood on my old geo. using the buick hinges would be very tough with a tc due to lack of space. the buick hinges are very large (can be trimmed but mounting would be an issue). but if you want to try go to the junkyard and find an 80's buick, you cant miss them their hoods will be open like that. you can also try fiero hinges and some old volvo's. if you can fab it up its possible but very hard. good luck.
