The bolt on the fiberglass hood ripped right out when I tried to close the hood yesterday. What a pile o' crap that thing turned out to be. Now I need a hood.

at least he's not threatening to sell his car because of it.

Owned. If you're going to sell the car than sell it. Don't need to make dramallama out of it. You spend all of this money modding it to the hilt and when an actual maintenance item has an issue you sell the car. What's it going to cost to figure out the issue at a shop. $200? Big deal.

Ryan, why not just get hoodpins?

Where are there bolts on the hood? You were born with Downs weren't you?

I know of bolts that go INTO the hood! But not any that are on the hood!

As in bolts that hold the hood to the hinges. You get the point retard.

Ryan, you should check the junkyard on 127 (can't remember what it was called) I drove through there not too long ago and I glanced and saw a pre98 that was red. Not sure if it was t-red, but worth a shot. Would probably just need to be sanded and painted if it is rough.
