Automatic hood closer
« on: May 02, 2010, 03:53:28 PM »
 Yesterday at a Car Show a gentleman had a device under his Solstice's hood which allowed to hood to close slowly and compeletly with the touch of a button under the hood.

 Does anyone know the name of this modification?

 Talked to Terry,the guy that painted the ghost flames on the Fetish and installed the DDM ProBeam.


 Terry says he can install an electric actuator under Fetish's hood so it will not slam when it is closed.

 He is also working on an extension for my license plate.

A closer on the hood would be cool. Don't forget the pictures and a parts list.   ;)
