Looks much better Justin!

I changed my hood hinges this weekend. As most are aware, the factory hinges leave....much to be desired. They work but even new, just don't provide the stability when closing that I would like.

Last week I ordered a set of gray billet hinges form Ring Brothers and if I ignore the cost, I am very happy! I didn't want polished or annodized black so these gray (really more silver than gray) hinges were exactly what I wanted!

These hinges do not flex so when closing the hood closes squarely every time. When opening, I can pull the hood release and the popping action alone is nearly enough to raise the hood all by itself. I can use a single finger and guide the hood the rest of the way up.

Replaced with new billet hinges




If anyone needs a set of aftermarket hinges in pretty good condition, PM me.
