Very nice and aesthetically pleasing!

My intentions for doing this was to help venting out heat from the supercharger in stop and go traffic and after parking.

Really? I can watch as my hood visibly raises above the fender. More speed lifts it more. This is on a 2020 model.

Ah I see what you mean. Let me rephrase my previous post. Yeah I get the "normal" hood lift at highway speed, but cutting the fender to vent out air didn't increase it any further. I say it's "normal" hood lift cause I suspect air is entering through the gap where the hood meets the headlights and the air just wants to exit through the gaps of our hood and fender.. thus lifting our hood above the fenders. Correct me if I'm wrong xD

My hood would lift when the little rubber height adjusters were set too low. Maybe yours weren’t fully adjusted from the factory. Try shaking your hood from where it hangs over the headlight. It shouldn’t move at all.

My hood had these problems, but I discovered my hood stops were actually set too high and keeping the corners raised ever so slightly. I turned them down like a half turn and it seems to have helped. Still solid, just sitting a bit lower. One might also be able to adjust the hood latch to be lower.

Thanks mate, custom order from the manufacturer ;p Haven't got the conversion chart handy, but estimating that it adds at least 100FP (fish power) to the rods and rear wheels

Is that 100 FP at the rod or at the reel? Cus rear reel fish power is all that matters.

I wasn't clear, I was wondering if you had a trunk like this paint matched or just an OEM trunk with a spoiler.
