I just got the hood painted last week, and had them install and paint my aero catch hood pins. I know a bunch of you liked the cf look, but I am happy with my choice. Let me know what you think

)

I got it painted, and aerocatch are a type of hood latching mechanism. You can learn about them hear.......... http://www.aerocatch.com/
I also started a thread about a month ago to try and find out more info on these pins, and found a few sites that sell them. You can check out that thread for more info if you are curious http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

awesome! thanks man! I'm gonna look into getting me a set... anyone looking for some regular hood pins?

quick question though, where are you mounting the pins?! from the pics, I can't even imagine where the pin bases are, can you take an engine shot?
