Im not in town (Ohio) but should be back in a month or so. I'll have the kit installed shortly. Revolutions just sent the kit out with a few other items. No issues with the wind????

i was at long horn cafe for the weekly meet, this was last friday. The wind was blowing 15mph easy, the doors and hood up. The hood was a little more stable than the doors, no problems

tacky, but does match your doors though...

hello, the only area to cut is around the front plate area where the bracket attaches to the hood, not much at all, a die grinder and a couple of files, 20 min and bamm

, a few holes to drill and bamm

and bamm

. i like saying bamm, bamm

. hahaha
check out the video, i think i point to the area that gets cut

Does the kit include a template of some sort for notching the front panel...more importantly a template for the strut mount at the hood...I have seen three of these and all of them are "Bowed out" at the strut tower area....meaning the hood is bowed and doesnt line up with the fender.
Yours is the first I have seen that actually looks lined up....nice job.

hello, it did have a slight bow to it, i could see where it was rubbing, took a soft face hammer and tapped the area in the pic, not much 1/4 inch down, an area about 2-3 inches wide. fixed. sorry for the night pics, just went out and took them...with my phone........just for you

it has a template for front panel notch. the strut uses existing mounts in the engine bay area and you drill 2 holes on the hood (this area has a dimple where the bracket sits ) so no template needed for the strut install

see the video on first post
