79262, My ViS Invader hood?!?! is it supposed to look like this? Posted by TheOctane, Dec-06-04 11:50 AM Hey all, i just saw some pics of other eclipses with an invader hood and i think mine might be a lil off or something. A profile shot makes my hood look really like arcy. Like it bows upward too much. I just wanted to know if you all know if this is to compensate for the original bump in the OEM hood or not. i dont have the best shots of it cause its dark right now when i realised its not supposed to look like that but heres a link to my CarDomain site..... PLEASE HELP!>?!?!?!?! | |

79384, RE: My ViS Invader hood?!?! is it supposed to look like this? Posted by 97xtc, Dec-12-04 05:36 AM I've had the vis invader hood on for about 7 months now, and around 10,000 miles w/o hood pins. Alot of the miles were on the highway between NY and TN and I maintained speeds from 80 to 100 with some spurts of 120mph. There's alot of strong wind all the time here in northern NY and I have yet to have a problem. If you're getting enough air under your hood to be able to lift it, it needs to be adjusted. If the hood moves, vibrates, flutters or shakes then it is not adjusted right and thats the reason they fly up. If it's adjusted too tight it will put too much pressure on the latch and could lead to failure. Also, when you shut your hood you need to grab it and try to pull it open then push it back down a few times. Theres been more then one time that mine did'nt latch And I caught it by tripple checking it. 99% of the time it's human failure and the rest is hood failure. | |
