help with plastic filler panel under hood?
help with plastic filler panel under hood?
hey guys i got a new plastic filler panel that goes between the upper rad support and the nose. the piece fills in the space where the hood latch is. my car is carbed stock so it does not have the air box, just the filler piece. my car didnt have the piece ever since i baught it and i have no clue what holds it on to the car. on the upper rad support there was a black (tree) pin there and assume they are used there so i will need to get some, but the nose is held by screws to the support brace. the screws are to small to hold the filler panel so what should be there to hold the panel? thanks for the help guys!

thanks for the help!!! i guess i need to get the washers for the screws for the front of it and thats it..your car looks awsome! hows the t-5 holding up to 330hp so far. and how does the car run with that engine? i feel thats about the power a third gen should have had from the factory...lol

Thank you for the nice words. The T-5 is holding up well, but I don't beat it. Compared to the old LG4 (which was modded), this 350/330 is a beast! Way fun to drive!
