    Are you talking about the hood liner? Where did you get it? Any better shots of your car? I see it's a PSM, but with the shadow it looks grayish. What other mods do you have done?

    Thumbs up couple

    I broke 2 underhood retainers (Hummer to Remove) but found similar ones at a Advanced Auto Parts a #45503 Ford Hood insulator retainers made by BODY-TITE. I also notice that 3 of the retaines for the trunk insulator were missing and found an almost exact duplicate DORMAN NISSIAN/INFINITY Door Panel Retainers #963-082.
    I've done no engine upgrade or exhaust just some glitzty stuff (Car actually belongs to the wife)
    I have the Audi lights DIY,GXP rear Diffuser, Silver pinstripping, painted brake calipers, G8 GT emblems on the interior. LED rear reflector DIY



    Hood liner came from http://g8.customautoaccessories.com/ look under other items

    You got the $170 kit with no script, right? It says wrap/cover, so it's not a new liner just a cover that you have to glue to the factory one or an overlay that you put on top of the factory liner and secure using the factory retainers? Sorry for all the questions.

    you have it correct. You need to remove the insulator and glue his product to it. They send you a can of spray glue. The hardest part was the round corners (wife did that part,her home Ec came into use). Retainers a scary to remove and expect to break a few and the rubber scoop inserts needed to be glued in when I did mine.

    What kind of radiator cover is that? It seems like you made a plexiglass cover for the middle but I haven't seen that style cover before. Also is that just some plexiglass you put on the fusebox and intake covers?

    a stencil and purchased a small sheet of mirrored plastic and cut it out. I only use it for Car Shows.
