i think spelling the title right will help me out.

Those will work just fine. However, the caps you can buy for $1.79 will look much better.

Uh... yeah. Pack of vinyl caps and some zip-ties will cost you less than ten bucks. Probably less than five.

Still, that's why hoods aren't transparent.

 

[V8HAHA]

This is a shot in the dark, but I am guessing you have idling problems? I have heard that removing the metal strap that connects to the screw right be that area can cause idle problems..

another cheap and easy way to do it is to jsut take 2 pieces of hose and loop 2 of the tb fittings together and zip tie the hose ends on the fittings. So you'd have 2 loops, make sense? I'm bad at explaining.

yea i got ya. i didnt know that could be done. I wouldve done tha tin the first place. I think the caps will do me better though.

There is a metal L-type bracket that you stick one of the tb bolts through (bottom most bolt in your 2nd picture) and that the screw on you tb goes through (only noticable philips head screw in the 2nd picture) I'll see if I can dig up a picture.

EDIT: This is the best one I can find. Its the metal piece rigt below all the nipples on the tb.
