Can somebody tell me exactly what type of bolts I need and where you found them? I went to lowe's on my break (only had a few minutes) asked the lady where the two inch brass bolts were. And she looked at me like I was nuts.

Not trying to find fault, just wondering if there was a brace or something in the way or perhaps you were getting some better flow ??
Looks like it about 6"-8" back..............I'll just leave it there.......

I got the parts ordered and I'm doing this mod hopefully next weekend. i read this thread multiple times and I plan on following the OP instructions with the exception of using brass toilet bolts for the drip tray and using a jig saw to do my cutting.

Got my parts in today. Not sure if I want to do it myself. I will keep on checking this forum for more info. But I might just pay for it. At least just for the cutting of the hood. The rest I can do myself.

I have it as far back in the engine compartment as possible. I have a 2011 RS V-6, I'm not trying to make it into a 14SS. I figure that directly over the intake manifold would allow the best airflow around,over, and out. Also the drip tray drains between the radiator and engine, I drive my car everyday and it's kept outside, so I really tried to improve function and not recreate a look.

As far as every one moving it back 1-2 inches or so may be better it will keep you from having to cut into the front brace where it starts to curve down... |

For the toilet bowl bolts, are the heads round or squared??? Lowes only had bolts that were round for a flat head screwdriver.

I think those are the seat bolts, the mounting bolts have a rectangular or square head so they won't turn when inserted in the slot.
