Hello again. Got it started yet? These bits are called 'Stand-offs' and basicaly bolt inbetween the normal decklid hinges and the decklid, raising it a by about three inches. Normally used when you put a big engine in to help cooling. If your in the uk I would guess one of the places to go would be Machine7.

How mcuh are those standoffs usually cost in america?
