This weekend, added Hood Struts and decided to paint the factory front tow hooks red.

For now, the factory hooks in red add the subtle pop I was looking for.

Did some things this weekendโ€ฆ

Swapped out the OEM meep meep and got the Land Cruiser Prado horns installed. Comparison with upgrade and original.

Also added a Zekzoop Insulation to the hood. Aside from thermal benefits, I noticed it improved the hood floppiness at highway speeds. Feels more stable with it on, less visual wobble.

After installing the insulation pad:

Does the aftermarket hood insulation works?

Definitely helps with the hood not flopping in highway speeds.

It reduces the engine noise, and from my observation makes the hood appear more sturdy.

I heard it helps protect the paint and the thermal aspect makes sense too.
