DIY: Floating Hood?

[Unknownally]

How do you customize your hood to "float?"

I know they sell universal kits for alot of money but damn too pricey.
Is there a way to do it without an expensive kit or pricey labor?

Floating Hood - the hood is slightly lifted from the back but the front stays snug. This causes a slanted look.

uneekazn1 has done it.

Thank you and good night!

My friend told me that the whole purpose of this is air goes in and hot air goes out.
