They're hard too see. Too much reflection on the hood.

LOL? Did you read the fine print?


their claims:

UFO Pros:
- Improved vehicle handling *
- Improved vehicle dynamics *
- Improved fuel efficiency *
- Decreased radar signature *
- Increases sexual appeal *
- MCAA Approved #*


* These statements have not been independently verified, and are most likely not true.

I didn't use ufos. I have plastic little pieces I bought for a dollar. I truly hope it increases my sexual appeal. Quite frankly, I have my own nipples to look at. Didn't need to look at these goofy things anymore. ;-)

I feel sexy as hell now that ive taken them off..What a life changing experience

There is a little double sided adhesive washer under them on the top side. Wiggling and twisting will eventually break them free. Keep on twisting and pulling and you should be able to push the tail through from the bottom. I took mine off when I put my hood decal on. Back on now without the adhesive and fine.

Personally, I like nipples

What is the easiest way to remove these nipples on my hood? Can I just pull them off?


Thanks in advance!
