    The section of hood keeps popping free. Anyone else have this issue? And what is the fix?

    Replacing the clips fixed this issue on my truck. Unfortunately I don't have a part number for you.

    I had the same issue, but only the right side would pop off. I ended up taking it off completely to inspect & I found one of the screw holes at the bottom of the hood bulge was broken. Might take a look at that.

    Mine started doing that awhile back. When I shut the hood is where it popped out. I’ve learned since that when I close it, I hold my hands tight against it. Been saying I was gonna fix it for awhile, just lazy I guess

    Hi all...just FYI. Used those GOOACC green colored clips from Amazon, and went through a car wash with a ton of high pressure dryers, and the bulge did not budge.... (seriously though it stayed in place with the high winds and didn't even move let alone pop out again).

    Corndog get those green ones if you have future issues. They work great!
