    So glad I saw this thread!! My teal clips showed up yesterday. I had the "flapping" on the highway. Never removed bulge before, so I was a bit nervous about breaking $hit. Easy peasy! and one of my factory clips was missing! Much better now!!

    My hood bulge is back to flexing. Took a peak and the green clips have sheared off in a couple of spots and the plastic has broken again. I’m going to reglue it and put more clips in. Active try drilling holes in the back to let the air escape?

    That's certainly an idea and wouldn't hurt anything.

    Too many mods to come

    We cut vents in the old man’s rig that went through the hood also before the vented hood.

    That’s what I’m thinking on doing.
