be prepared to drill/tap the holes yourself, for some insane reason the pre-drilled/tapped holes they provide are the incorrect size. I don't really full comfortable with how loose the hood latches fit in the holes now so I'm going to attempt to secure it from inside the hood with a nut/washer on the back side if possible, if not I'm going to ditch the stock latches and install a set of aerocatch.

Also if you do any kind of high speed runs (130+ mph) be prepared for a scary amount of hood flex/shaking near the windshield/cowl.

Glad you said something I'm not trying to do all that.

Is this common for aftermarket hoods?
