Nice! Let us know how it cools.

Just wondering, what was the reason for separating the inner structure and did you put it back together?

Nice job on skinning the hood. I did the same thing and it saved weight. Any plans on hood pins because I doubt it's going to mount [back] on the hinges this way?

It is going to sit on 4 hood pins. Just have to weld brackets on the back.

What sparked you to mod the hood?

I like to be different, also I think it looks good and getting heat out when creeping on a trail is good.

Post a picture of your rear brackets. If you need any help designing them, I think I can help.

Look forward to seeing pics of the rear mounts for pins, and would also look forward to hearing how it does on the trails compared to the stock hood... Sorry to hear about the kidney stones as well, hope they all pass quickly and as non painfully as possible!!
