I just had a OEM hoodmask shipped to me (The Half Mask) and it was never used. Still had the “Tear before use” Sticker and all, and On the installation paper it said if it started to flap, pull over, fix it, and so on. But, I cant seem to get it any tighter than it is now… It’ll flap from time to time when I’m doing about 60 or so… Does it need to shrink up alittle in the sun? I just think it should be alittle tighter than it is.
Nothing…?
Make sure the hood is tucked all the way in the corners, and getting it wet might help shrink it.
Yeah, its pretty tight in the corners, but the middle top part seems to still want to flap alot. I’ll spray it down and let it sit for awhile. Thanks for the info.
mines is like that too. I dont know if I recomend spraying it down but to each his own:)
Yeah, im alittle sketchy about doing that. I was just wondering if i was the only one with a flappy hood mask. Thanks for the input.
mine does it to on the freeway in town it ok tho i was thinking i might add some more hooks to it to pull it tighter
Whats wrong with getting it wet? Be carefuly using a hose, because you dont want to make the mask fill up like a pocket and stretch, just get it a little wet.
make sure you have the plastic pieces that go inside the bra where it pops up…i didnt have the pieces for my bra and it did the same thing… got the proper pieces and no more flapping. hope this helps.
haha this is the second thing ive learned from you today :hi5:. mine where missing so I measured my buddys but using a thiner plastic. after a little adjusting of the drivers side. it realy worked, the drivers side stuck to the hood where as the pass side didnt.
now I just got to get some thicker plastic!!
Hey, thanks for the advice. But i already have the black pieces slotted into the raised part of the bra. 2 on each side, BUT. i do recall getting a foil looking strip that was sticky. Had no clue what it was. Do you know by any chance and what its for? Thanks.
