It's just a bolt on hood man! The original will most definitely be saved and unmodified. And how is it a waste if they are repopping them? It's my money to spend as I please. It's not like I am stealing an original away from a car that may need one someday. Your GTX that you are selling has a ton of mods. I would never think of doing that to my car but I can respect another guys car because it was made to suit themselves. Everyone's different...:) anyways...back to my question...
