Make sure it's centered before you mount it. You can always move it before mounting, but not after.

Whatever you do measure everything like 10 times. I almost made the mistake of cuttin too much plastic off. Find some nice things to mount your hood with.. not just zip ties:rolleyes: I am still trying to figure out a good way on how to mount the hood up near my gas tank.. it sticks up about 1/2 inch... anyone have the same problems. By the way its a Fibe hood.

Well when i got off work today i started puting my hood on. I wasn't planing on cutting my plastic in half but w/ the vented hood i had to. I used c-clamps to hold the hood in place and square it up right. Marked where i wanted to cut .............cut it and bagan mounting. It went better than what i though. The only problem i had was towards the top but its all mounted, i put i spongey matiral on the top nuts incase in wears in the tank. It was fun and worth it looks f*ckin b@d. Lance
