Theres nothing wrong with my underliner, but I would like to pull it out just for better looks. Would this be alright? and possibly keep the engine cooler in summer? I would imagine it only holds heat from making the hood hot which wont be a big deal for me. Thanks.

 

i dont see why not. my truck doesnt even have it

 

Just keep a fresh coat of wax on the hood and your good to go but put it back on for the PA winters

 

Sounds good, thanks guys.

 

you shouldnt have any issues.mine is a 2005 and it didnt even come with one.i added one for good measure.

 

where might one find one of these hood liners? are there any aftermarket? i'd like to get one for my 06 screw.

 

They must have a purpose though. Sound deadner (sp) or insulator?

 

i bought mine at the dealer when i worked there.i dont think you can get one anywhere else.

 

I'd like to have the Ford oval printed on mine, full size.

 

I always believed it was to keep in heat for the cold, and to hide the brace bars.

 

Yep............

 

i also thoght since the engine compartment has so much heat it was put there to protect the paint on the hood.

 

mine doesnt have one, never did...take it off it wont hurt anything.
