The insulation under the hood of my 2001 Cobra looks like crap. I removed it leaving just the painted surface.

What are you running? Have any pics?

I'm thinking of maybe a decal, mural, mirror stainless steel, etc.

Wanna look good at the weekend cruises.

I threw my crappy hoodliner in the trash the day I got my car. The underside of the hood is painted and waxed.

What purpose is the hood liner supposed to serve anyway?

If the hood liner is there to stop road noise, I guess it doesnt really matter if I remove my ugly liner. With my suspension & tires, my car has a ton of road noise anyway, & when I install the torque arm, subframes, & rear coilovers, its gonna be worse.

Im wondering if there are any long term effects of taking the hoodliner off....
After a long drive isnt the hood scortching hot? Any effects on the paint?

I painted the running pony on mine red, and then stenciled my username under it. I use this name pretty much on all sites I'll get pictures tomorrow after work.

Some of the plastic retainers keep falling out of my hood liner. I've been wanting to remove it altogether but was worried about the hood getting too hot
