Who has custom hood hinges?
 
Does anyone have custom hood hinges on their truck? Pictures would be nice, and what type of hinge did you use? Thanks

Ive also been wondering if these hood hinges would really make my hood more stable as well...

I have seen a truck on here that has some mercedes CLK hinges on it. Does anyone know what year and model they came off of.

They don't look like direct bolt ons...are they?

I have a set from Ringbrothers. Bolted right on, hood closes the same every time. Priced kinda salty, but I got tired of trying to fit the constantly changing body lines.

Sorry no pics, camera batteries dead.

Holy schmoley!!!! Those are nice, but I don't think I can have a set of hood hinges that cost more than my seats... :lol:

Ya wow those are nice but I paid less than twice the cost of those hinges for my truck lol.

This is the best picture I have of my Eddie Motorsports Billet Aluminum Hinges with the Gas Shocks... When I get the truck back from Patterson Racing (getting the Final Tune done on it) I will get a better pic of it...

Reminds me of the hoods from the late 80's Buick LeSabres, they opened and shut the same way. I am guessing some of that was adapted to this hood!!!

I actually have one of those hinges laying in my shop. But I did not get it until after I built this from scratch. I just thought it out and built it.....

I have some hinges I bought on ebay from a seller called reneeslife1 which are the original hinges, chrome powder coated. They look great in my opinion. unfortunately these are the only pics I have right now, I'll try and remember to snap another later.

These are trunk hinges? I googled the part #'s and came up with trunk hinges.. also do you gotta run gas struts to keep the hood open? Thanks

I just purchased a refurbished set as well from eBay - here is a pic. My friend also has a set like this, and they look awesome. Thought about the billet ones mentioned above, but they will not work in my circumstance with the heater box on the firewall.
