under hood liner

[ram15]

the liner under my hood is coming off and i cant seem to stop it from tearing and falling down. Ive tried using the widest body clips i can find and it doesn't work. has anybody used a bed liner or maybe a fender undercoating rather than the matting material. id like to find a spray on rather than a mat, i think it would look a lot better and be more durable.

i just tore the the stuff off the under side of my hood.. I dont think it really does anything at all

Don't lower end models come without that matting in the first place? Rip it out.

Here's an option...Thecodes runs this on his truck.

Aircraft firewall material hood liner insulation pad for Mustang, Corvette, Jaguar, many other cars: Dodge Gallery

My 02 Durango didn't have one. My dodge stratus and my ram both don't have one because I didn't reuse it on the aftermarket hoods. I'd say just take it off since it can make a mess under the hood as it falls apart under there.

those are pretty damn cool but if the heat isn't bad enough to mess up my paint ill just en up ripping it out. i was just worried about the paint on my hood getting messed up.

They were originally designed as a fire suppressant. The little plastic plugs that attach them to the hood bracing would melt away in the event of an under hood fire...thus, the mat would fall onto the engine, suppressing it.

i'm jumping on the the "just take it off" bandwagon

 

[wermbang]

I took mine off was going to do something but got lazy and left it

If you want to keep it that bad The Home Depot sells a spray can in the paint dept of a spray that dries into a rubber sealer. I bet that'd stick to it and hold it together. It's heat resistant also.

I'm on the pull it off bandwagon, however Cody's does look pretty slick...

 

[ram15]

i didn't know that smokedram i thought they were to protect the paint from engine heat. in that case ill just take it off like everybody says.

 

[Nightwing1]

Take it off! :********:

LOL mine was falling off too. If you're worried just use the sealer posted earlier or some high temp paint.

I personally have not had any paint fading. But I drive a white truck so if there is I wouldn't notice right away.

 

[ram15]

yah i ended up taking it off. im not to worried about it anymore, it looks a lot better now anyway.

If anyone has one from a 3rd Gen truck that is in decent condition that they don't want ill take it off your hands for you... I want one to put on my hood.
