And next I'll be running tubing the whole way across the top of grill line. I'm looking at extending the hood forward 2" and the mounting position for the latch as well. I really want to cut out the whole top piece from side to side and just have the tubing there with the latch mounted to it. A friend of mine keeps telling me I should keep the factory upper cross piece there and extend that forward to keep the look of it. The look? You don't even see it with the hood closed but maybe he just prefers the factory engine bay look when you look in to see the engine? I dunno.
