Yea, when I had my RA1 hood it did. I just filed it down in the area where the wiper was hitting the hood.

Congrats! i'm happy for you, but I just can't seem to get into that style hood. Too much going on I guess. Kinda like the Daytona hood with the cowl, the vents and the louvers all at the same time. yuck. Maybe it will look better when it's painted

if i end up deciding to keep the car and not sell it, it'll be made functional when it gets painted...otherwise it'll get transferred to the new car i buy and made functional then

thesteve - it's an incredibly good fit....took MUCH less time to adjust correctly than i thought it would

uhh, not sure yet. if i end up keeping the car and getting it painted, i'll sell the hood. i forget his name right now, i'd have to look it up, but somebody's already got dibs on it if i sell it if they still want it. but if i sell the car, i'll be selling whatever hood the buyer doesn't want on the car....i'll post when i find out if it's for sale or not

LOL i didn't know that was you! well then, YOU have dibs on my hood if i decide to sell it!

i can't update my sig yet cause i don't know what i'm gonna do. it still is up for sale, and if it sells for the price i want for it, i'll let it go, and buy another. but i'm also trying to decide if i want to keep it and get it painted, but then i'll have to do a v-6 to v-8 swap. so everything's still up in the air. so while i'm deciding, the car's for sale, cause then if it sells, i won't have a choice but to buy another one.

and i'd make a new sig pic, but i don't know how to work photoshop at all
