Aftermarket Hood hinges

How well do the after market hood hinges work or am I better off getting them from a parts yard?

Re: Aftermarket Hood hinges

Got my driver side hood hinge from LMC. Doesn't fit quite like OEM. Still have some issues with the panel gap from the hood to cowl, but that's easily fixed by elongating the holes where the hood attaches just a bit more. Other than that, no issues at all. Bolt patterns and overall fitment is pretty good.

Re: Aftermarket Hood hinges

The PB hinges work well once installed. I had some quality issues when i recieved mine, but they were easily resolved with some drilling and grinding. If you decide on PB hinges, buy the full kit with the struts. I did not, and had to but the upgrade kit.
