shit I removed my washer fluid box along time ago..
now I got a CF hood and still no nozzles...I have purchaed stock in rain X and Black rain for my windshield and that works wonders in the rain and beads it right off...ohhh yeah

chefmaster21 01-28-2004 04:14 PM

i was thinking about putting my stock hood back on for the winter. then i don't want my cf hood getting messed up no space

Some cars have them underneeth the hood like my integra there are no holes to
be drilled so u can do it that way with out damaging ur cf hood.

pdiggitydogg 01-28-2004 04:55 PM

just get a new drill bit and have at it
or a dremel w/ cutting wheel

look at it this way:
If you take it somewhere and they screw it up, they need to replace the hood. Simple as that. If you do it and you kill it, youre SOL

MAXed Out 01-28-2004 05:07 PM

it wold still mess the hood up and it will loose it's clean look it u drill holes in it.

DO NOT DRILL THE HOOD

you will regret it. the nozzels look retarted on a cf hood imo. i never had nozzels in my hood, but i rigged the line to spray a stream of water on the windshield from under the hood for in the summer when it rains and water spots dry on the glass

ebpda9 01-28-2004 06:20 PM

mount the nozzles to that plastic cover underneath the windshield

i tried that, didnt work good at all. the nozzles have very little play as to what direction they point in. you'd have to make some sort of bracket so you can get a good angle and still be able to run the line for water under the cover

ebpda9 01-28-2004 06:39 PM

well you can wind the lines for $2 at every autoparts store

chefmaster21 01-28-2004 07:23 PM

yeah i deffinalty wasn't even thinking about drilling holes cause i knew it would take away from the clean smooth look of the hood and i didn't want to mess it up and pretty much know it will, if i did drill them

sohc_vtec 2NR 01-28-2004 10:28 PM

so do you have hood pins on the cf hood? cuz if you do then the smooth clean look is no longer there so might as well drill the nossle hole...if you don't have hood pins then i wish you luck that it doesn't fly off

chefmaster21 01-30-2004 03:27 PM

no hood pins. i have had my hood for a little over a year and have not had a problem with not using pins

ChrisCantSkate 01-30-2004 03:47 PM

edit\ fiber image hoods dont need em

C's 94 InTeGrA 01-31-2004 11:14 PM

mine dont work on my beater car.. my cutlass.. thers a leak somewhere in the line cause everytime i fill up it and try to use them its all gone!!

chefmaster21 02-01-2004 10:40 PM

in the winter i have found the best way to clean my winshield is take a wet paper towel and wipe window then take dry paper towel and dry it. everything else freezes like glass cleaner. but my boy friend knows how much it is drving me crazy hes gonna rig something up this weekend for me hopefuly he can figure something out:bandit:
