well its very simple if your using the 03+ headlight. you just need to bend the lower tab that mounts the bottom of the pre 03 hood around a little bit to match up with were the headlight mounts. if you havent seen this it might help http://www.blasterforum.com/do-yourself-20/2003-2006-hood-1988-2002-blaster-13144/ i mounted it how specialized 7 did. he posted pictures on there of how he did it.

Ya that's what I did is bend the tab but there are holes on the side and the nose that need to be screwd to something for better support

where on the nose? you mean on the very tip on the front? also you could make the bracket like he did in the thread i posted but i dont use those holes and mines very very tight on.
