A bungie cord to match the color of your car?

j/k

I actually liked the pin's on that RL. Not my taste but it looked okay.

I also liked the fact they actually locked down my hood. No chance of it flying up, as it once did. POS. Anyway, I am sure a search on ebay or the web will yeild some results. and trust me, the low pro ones look nice, could even paint em black for stealth.

sweet!

the search has begun.

Sorry to revive this post from the dead, but I am having a HELL of a time finding any information regarding these Cusco hood pins. Can anyone provide a link? I looked all up and down google and couldn't find anything anywhere.

Otherwise, does anyone know of a good deal on some Sparcos?

Agreed, for that price they should be doing more than locking my hood...if you catch my drift.
