My inexpensive DIY hood liner – purists please abstain.
#18
I haven't had a reason to need the liner and it's been a couple years. If anything the car's that much lighter

As a purist, I have been trying to abstain, but thought I'd relate my recent experience with this task. Final result picture is in post #269 of the thread https://rennlist.com/forums/924-931-...bernation.html.
My pad was decomposing. Factory replacement pieces were sourced. Passenger side looked stock, but the driver side had a different foam pattern, slightly different color and a hole. By chance I checked a pad I had gotten for my MB 240D from Mercedessource.com, and it was almost exactly like the passenger side pad. I cut a piece and used contact cement to place it. Passenger side was self-adhesive. Used 3M adhesive remover to clean off the old sticky stuff. Very tedious.
