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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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:
