Rev Br Tech Hood Mounting???

[wildcard28]

Hello Everyone, I just purchased a Smoke colored Br Tech Hood and have trimmed outside of the hood down to the stock size since when you get one of these hoods they come with extra plastic way over sized, no problem just made a maskiing tape line to bet a better view of cutting with my Jig Saw Cool thing is there is a indented line already molded in the hood of the actual size of the stock hood just have to cut it on that line so laying down some masking tape so you can cut next to it makes it alot easier to eyeball a more acurate cut, I not cutting out the headlight holes just yet or the are where the stock hood screens go , going to drill a bunce of small holes smaller than the holes in the original hood screens to help keep powder out.

Awesome product looks great, Will post pics soon.

Anyway the hood even has a couple dimple on the rear each side of the hood to drill to put a rubber washer against the plastic and a screw thru, I just drilled the original stock push mounting pin and ran a screw thru the hood into the center of the mounting pin and have the Rear mounted great..

My actual Question is to anyone who has one of these hoods or mounted one before, WHAT did you all do for ideas to mount the front of the Hood it has a few dimple to drill if you want to make a bracket to mount the stock hinges but I`m not going to do that need to find a better way to fasten down the front of the Hood So, PLEASE show some pics and explanation on how you all fastened down the front of the Hood, Sorry about the long read hope this helps other who want to buy one of these hood I like it.

I've ran two BRtech hoods, thrasher on my Rev, and a lexan on my wife's. They both came w/ hinges that riveted through the top of the hood.

Here are some pics if you decide to build some. The stock hinges mount different and keep the rivets hidden. Had to trim a little of the right side, it was rubbing the twin pipes.

Thank you for the pics and the post, I would like to also see pics of other ways to mount the front of the hood like what kind and where someone who might have rubber tie down straps like whats on the back of older hoods etc any other ideas are welcome, pics please.....

Thanks, Wildcard
