y do they recommend it be on the car for 3-4 weeks ?? ALL aftermarket hoods are sightly high in the back near the windshield...lemme know !
Also, allowing the hood to cure on the car will help the hood to fit better.

They recommend that it be on the car for 3-4 weeks before painting, so it takes a lot of patience.

That 3 inch cowl make it hard to see?

I didn't trust Bondo to not fall out it the bumper got flexed. I now have a Wings West grill insert on it.
I am not tall - 5'6" and I don't have any problem seeing over the cowl.
