Can someone with an 08 hood measure the hexagon size on the 08 hood grill area. Are they 1/4 inch from side to side, or closer to .45 to .5 inch. Thanks.

It is not a perfect hexagon. It is elongated. The inside measurement of the longest point is .525" The shortest inside measurement is .275 (distance between the two closest parallel sides) Hard to explain without drawing it, I hope this helps.

*****? I was trying to help you. Look at the pics in the other thread on 08 hoods that is out now. It shows pics of a GTS blue hood from the inside. Maybe you can figure it out Einstein.

In the thread "Any other 06 owners get an 08 hood?", look at the post by Kala. Look at the blue hood. If those look like perfect hexagons to you, send me some of whatever you are smoking.

You may have to eat some crow here as it may be just the angle that picture was taken. I did see them in person and seem to recall them looking like a honeycomb with perfect hexagons.

No crow necessary. I have an 08 in my garage. When 85 of 200 made his post, I went out with my mike and measured it for him. I was only trying to help, believe me the "hexagon" is elongated. Unless of course my 08 is different from all the rest.
