Hood Crest
I was in Hershey for the swap meet on saturday and had the pleasure of meeting rennlist member Intrepidagent. I picked up a black hood crest for my black Pcar. Put it on yesterday and it looks incredible...

Here's a tip for getting the gasket to fit properly around your new crest. Boil a pint of water in a small saucepan. When it comes to a boil remove it from the burner and let it sit for 10 minutes. Drop the gasket into the hot water and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Take it out and stretch it over the new crest. It's intentionally made a bit small so it does require some stretching to fit it properly. If you ever played a sport that required fitting a mouthguard then it is a very similar procedure.
Best Regards: Jim

On my old, old 944 the crest was stolen twice so I got plenty of practice with this.
