REMEMBER THESE ARE UNIVERSAL . So they fit many other makes and models. $650/ pair fully tig welded and shipped anywhere in the USA

I had studs added to the bottom side of mine as the hood is fiber glass. Hopefully, picture came through. I wish I had cut them in about 3" close to the front of the hood.

Hi Frank..... love these hood vents! Do you make a set that can be installed on a "painted" hood? I see you have some pictured with button head fasteners.... I'd be interested in a set with hidden studs. Let me know... Dave

Hi Dave , I believe the Ones you are referring to belong to a client . He made it with hardware mine all come for weld in , some people have bonded ( surface mount ) especially guys running Csrbon fiber hoods

Dave,. The ones your referring to frank sold to me and I wanted an industrial look so we layed out and drilled 48 holes for button head stainless steel Allen bolts.
A guy could do 24 or whatever but it was what I wanted. My car has forgeline ZX3R wheels so that will match nicely. Wheels are black barrels and brushed titanium centers so I figure I'll paint Frank's vents with a stainless steel type paint to get the brushed titanium look on them or may. Even just clear coat them for the look I'm after. I'm also running ride tech stainless cage with similar coating. So I'm theme throughout the car black /white ad stainless / carbon fiber.
You could easily drill and bolt or Tig your bolts for studs as you said. I'm super pleased with how my turned out and more so with Frank's work
Good luck
And didn't mean to hijack your thread frank!

I am going to have to list mine for sale because they don't suit the Firebird 400 hood as well as I hoped.

Hey Frank
Car is coming along well. Got a lean issue on bank one I'm pulling the intake for as soon as new gaskets get here. Idle to 1300 is crap. 1300 to 7500 all numbers, fuel trims, afr is great and it pulls hard runs like a bat out of hell.
As soon as i sort the vacuum issue it will be golden.
I lack back seat, stereo, kicks, and my Estopp E brake.
Plan on trailering it to LS east. I've only got about 550 miles on it so far but that's not enough to take off 7 hours to bowling green.
