Hood question

Just bought a '69 that apparently has a '71 hood and grill. Is there anything special about the hood other that the missing bowtie on a '71 from a '69? Does anyone know if there are any tricks or problems installing a bowtie on the '71 hood? Thanks!

are you wanting to change the hood and grill back to original? I prefer the 71!

The hoods are the same, just mount the BowTie on your hood. FWIW I prefer the 69-70 grills too.
