Most people use the a12 6pk hook kits. But you also need to consider a center front pin if going fast and air inducted on a thin pin on hood

It's a cleaner look. I think the back brackets bolts to around where the hinge would be, and the front factory hood pin holes on your car. You won't have to drill any holes anywhere to make any other damage to your car in the cowel.

Got a picture of your new hood Drew?

anyone need a set of A12 brakets? $25. I go them, mounted them, and found out my hood pin needs to be 3 inches longer to use them on the challenger. they mount way to low to use on a chally.
