From LX to MSP- my build.

I have a spare hood but it's brand new OEM from Mazda and just got painted last week with PPG Global Sunlight Silver Metallic.. I'll probably just keep it for use as a winter hood even though the paint is so perfect.

yeah i don't have one yet..i'm supposed to go down to Va this weekend to pick up a stock hood for 65.00 from DAonly1Around...hopefully i can...it'd really help...then i'm gonna drill some hood pins into it. cuz i don't have a latch.woot. go me.
 
dude dude don't put hood pins on a stock hood. The latch assembly is 40 bucks from onlinemazdaparts.com... not including the cable and stuff, hopefully you still have that maybe?

no i dont.
but i'm not too worried about it. hood pins are 10.00. and i'm only gonna have the hood on for about a week.
 
I'd still rather just get a latch and rig up a cable that you can like reach up under the front bumper to release.
