fiberglass hood...
Hello All,
Just picked up a WS6 hood for my '91 RS and have a couple of questions.
1. It is a mount on hood using stock mounts. Do I need to purchase different hood lifts/shocks since the new hood is so much lighter?
2. Should I use some sort of heat shield on the underside to protect the fiberglass?
Thanks for any input.

Re: fiberglass hood...
I dont know if yours is as heavy as mine but I used the original hinges because the ones for fiberglass were too light. I didnt use anything on the underside.
