I have an al hood on my 420 SEL. That's because some PO hit a deer and went to the junkyard and replaced parts. The lower radiator support is still bent from it.

BTW, the hood came from a 1st version W126 because it had no hood latch. I added the hood latch, and I had to drill some holes too. The hood springs are for the regular steel hood and the hood can fly up really fast so I have to be careful.

I'l like to get the correct hood springs for the car.
