Hood Seal Ideas

Post by skinzley »

I'm looking to get a better seal on my hood. It closes nice and has a pretty even gap all the way around. Like most baja fiberglass hoods it doesn't fit perfectly.
Any ideas on what materials to use and the types of glue used to hold it in place would be great help.
Pictures would be very helpful also.
Thanks

My best suggestion is to take it to a good old time non-chain bodyshop.

You'd be amazed at all the profiles of seal material they have.

Periodically I'll buy a few rolls of misc seal.. there are some with a Puffy D shape.. some are an Z shape..

Unfortunately I don't know the names of their body trim suppliers.
