Just An Idea

Post by tizeye »

I've always had a problem with the way the hood fit my Big Boys Toys Vindicator...I didn't want to have a body clip in the middle of it and velcro on the sides made the hood bend out from the edges because of the extra width. So I decided that I'd try using a strip of polycarbonate and fitting it between the frame (see pictures) I used existing screws to hold it in place. Anyway thought I'd share...
