Re: hoods for 1st gen eclipse

some carbon fiber hoods may not have it.. other than that, there are no OEM made ones.

Re: hoods for 1st gen eclipse

if you have a 2.0 engine in your 1g you need the bump. the cam gears stick up above the engine and the bump makes room for them to fit. of course you could just take off your cam gears :evillol j/k

Re: hoods for 1st gen eclipse

The 1.8l 1g DSM's came w/o the hump in the hood since it didnt need it, the 2.0, if it wasnt for the hump, you wouldnt be able to close your hood. BTW, why would you wanna get rid of the hump?, it add's such a nice effect to the car.

Re: hoods for 1st gen eclipse

I've seen 1g 1.8l w/o the hump, I think it only came w/o the hump on the 1.8l Plymouth Laser. But trust me, there is a OEM hood w/o the hump for 1g's probably only used on the laser 1.8l

Since when did the 3rd gen have a bump in the hood?

And if i had to rate your post I'd give you a -1 out of 10.

ok you are showing your stupidity , have you ever seen a 3rd gen eclipse, well obviously not because you are saying that they dont have bumps in the hood when indeed they do. look at one there is a slightly smaller hump that the one on the 2nd gen and will be seen on both the driver and passenger side of the hood. and what am i getting ratewd on?

Wow, what's with the hostility.....

Did you get sand in your vagina or something????

As for showing stupidity, you might want to brush up on your English before you start throwing words like that around.

Lastly, take a look at the following picture (a nice clean black 3g)....



Maybe I need my eyes checked, but there doesn't seem to be a bump in the hood!

Dude, shut the fuck up. The 3g don't have the cam gear bump that 1st and 2nd gens do.

You are getting reamed because your grasp of the English language is nominal at best.

ha you definitley got served...i think though, that the bump on the 2.0 liter models is because of the high timing belt cover. The 1.8 liter models dont have the timing belt there, so they dont need the bump. If I'm wrong about that though, lets still be friends
