I thought about even taping the hood to my hood, but with my luck I know it would fly off.

Key word: thought

After I realized it was a horrible idea I then came up with the no hood idea. None have occurred since.

True, there isn't a lot that can go wrong, but its not a chance that I would EVER take. Hell, you're better off putting a blanket on top of your car, and tying the hood to the roof

The only things stopping me from doing that are my window vent shades. I'll break 'em off if I tie a rope around.

get there put the CF hood on your car then tie your stock hood to your roof. That way any dmage to the stocker really wouldnt matter. Or if your stock hood isnt in great shape you could consider finding a dumpster or something and tossing it before you begin the trip back.


edit: better yet find the local scrapyard there and drop it off for a few bucks.

Well, my hood is near mint. Other than regular highway nicks it's, wait damnit, I forgot. I park on the street and some *** clown put a little dent in my hood. Damn.
