## Description

New Hood blackout for 97-06 Wrangler TJ. Matte black color. Cuts down on hood glare and looks great at the same time.

Review: Great product, with a little patience... - Very happy with this. Comes with everything you need (which I didn't realize until I opened the kit, but was nonetheless happy to find). As previously mentioned, the liquid they send is useful but not near enough unless the temp is well below 70 and the hood is cool. I simply poured the small bottle into a large spray bottle 3/4 full of water and shook it together - worked great after. You will really want to soak the hood and decal, front and back as you peel it off and after you clay bar the hood. I did this alone (they recommend a second person), and it can be tricky but if you're patient and think it through you'll be fine. After you spray it all down and get it laid onto the hood, eyeball the lineup and with a little pressure move the decal into place. I stood on the fenders and bumper to get a birds-eye view of the placement. I also used a tape measure to ensure even placement around the hood brackets, since my eyes have been known to lie to me before. Once you do that, hold it lightly in place and, using the felt side of the small squeegy, go from the center to the top, then bottom, then left and right - making a cross. Then work out the rest of the water, always from the center. After it's all laid out, wipe it dry with a soft cloth and cut the holes with the included razor. Reinstall hardware and drive. Install took me all of 15 minutes from claying to finish, with a few close calls in between. Couldnt' be happier with the product, as the Arizona sun can be somewhat unforgiving off a silver hood. Makes driving more fun, and added a unique, good look to my TJ.
Review: Great Product! - This is a great product! Well made. Easy to install. Comes with everything you need. Some reviews say the water bottle was too small, but there was more than enough - we did not even use the whole bottle. It took about 30 minutes to apply - with 2 people. It went on perfectly smooth. However, a few hours later a few small bubbles did pop up. I have no idea what caused them. We were not able to smooth them out because the adhesion had already set in on the rest of the decal. The bubbles are noticeable when you look closely, but still better than the messed up paint on my 25 years old Jeep hood. This was definitely worth $40 and 30 minutes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Covered up some clear coat damage. Quality product
*by E***. on June 3, 2023*

Install was pretty straightforward as far as vinyl goes- which I hate putting on stickers. I always mess it up. But we took our time and it came out pretty good. Here’s a before and after. I ceramic coated over the side clear coat failure so it looks decent from a few feet away, and really nice in pics.
