Whoa dude, you don't have to be so harsh. I know some of the newer cars, for example the 2003 Nissan Frontier has a fire blanket type thing under the hood. Its held up there by plastic rivets which would melt in the case of an engine fire and the blanket would fall onto the engine itself smothering it and hopefully putting out the fire. Its probably not one of those but just thought I'd throw it out there.

PS. ManInCamo wasn't sure what it was either; hence the question marks at the ends of his sentences.

that kind of language isn't necessary... i am not familiar with cf hoods and their construction. ManInCamo said that questioningly. Which means he wasn't stating it as fact. So I said "oh is it??" because i understand it could be, but it also could be padding, i have seen it before, so i said "lets see what he says" because i want to be absolutely sure. quit whoring my thread

Had I answered your question earlier, this little fight could have been avoided...

As stated by ManInCamo, there is nothing under my hood...
As Crucial Si mentioned and as I have posted previously, my hood is a Fiber Images CF hood.
