    Default so my new hood emblem came in

    Imagine my suprise when I picked up my new shiny hood emblem from the post office. I tore the wrapping off on the spot and tossed it into the trashcan. I removed the packing and gasped in horror.

    The emblem has 2 prongs. My hood space has 4 holes.


    I think I'm going to sand it smooth and glue it on

    The hood should only have 2 holes....
    If it cannot be fixed by the dremel or ducktape.. get out the sledge...
