12aine, why is your hood raised in the back by your windsheild. this migh tbe stupid but i heard that windsheild wipers cause drag(cant be much drag), so thers a cowling available somewhere that fixes that. is your just an easy fix with out haveing to buy parts?

True, windshield wipers do create drag... but the hood is raised because 1) lets some hot air out, and 2) it hits my strut bar if the hood is all the way flat

Unless your hood is vented the raise acts more like a vaccum keeping heat in, than a way to cool the engine.
