Ok, I'm just about to buy the Vorsteiner Carbon Fiber Vented Racing Hood for my car but didn't know how to install it. I looked online and didn't find anything and was wondering if anybody here knew a website that had a tutorial on how to do it.

Thanks

It should be rather straight forward. You have to remove the hood shocks by using a flat head screw driver to pop out the metal retaining clip on the part that attaches to the hood. The hinge then detaches with either 8 or 10mm bolts at the top and bottom. You can then slide off the old hood and slide on the new one.

You might also want to order some E46 M3 hood shocks so that you don't have to use a broom stick to prop the hood open.

Thanks for the help, I looked at it too and seen the bolts but it looked to easy to take off a hood. I will make a new thread once I get it on. Thanks Oh and I didn't notice your from JleviSW I'm buying it from you guys, so maybe you can answer a question, how much rain water (if at all) would get in if I kept the vents open?
