The one I have is a bolt on from Unlimited

I did not like the bolts they provided so I welded up a frame with studs out of 1 inch wide flat steel., came out much better.  To paint it all I did was use a spray can and it did not hold up well, I need to do it again.

It fits the curve of the hood perfect and it was long enough to cover the stock 87 scoop holes.

Yours may not say 8.2 Litre on the side.

Careful with the bondo.I saw a guy do that with a scoop and the first time he shut the hood,cracks everywhere.I like the body panel adhesive.That stuff RAWKS !!!
