I have to agree that in my opinion grooved hoods look much better than those gas flap jobbies.

Not to mention every time you top a hill you are not distracted by the mini air brake deploying ala "Kinght Rider Super Pursuit Mode".Originally Posted by Lou and "Boo"

I haven't done it, but DM is right. It's durable. You could cause damage if you're not careful. I'm sure it can be done without damage.

It's a DeLorean... it's not as though I'm catching air when I'm topping hills.

If you are serious about the automatic car I know someone who has a car for sale. Although it is carbed. (Which has its pros and cons) PM me if you are interested and I'll will send you his contact info.

Seriously though... does that really happen? I ask because mine was fairly loose... probably not enough to cause the air brake effect, but after I replaced the springs (101560) it really tightened up.
To the OP, I also encourage you to call your nearest DMC location as part of your search process. They don't always post all of their available cars on their website. Good luck!
