...says the man w/ the bling bling vert Also, keep in mind you still paid more than twice what you needed to for your "cheap" solution. Actually, infinitely more, since I would have given you the whole setup, haha.

W/ a non-metal hood its either that our fiberglass a mount and reinforcement structure to the underside of the hood....in this has more bling bling

I just went back and returned it for one that had the ball mounts, but it was too short. So I went back again and returned it for the original one, kept the ball mounts. All is well now.

It really will rip your face off when opening though

I'm going to do this to my wife's Cx-7 now
