d you really need the hood pins

 

Nobody NEEDS them...but they look good and if you wanted to disable your stock hood latch and use just the pins for racing purposes you can. Of course, that gives people the ability to open your hood w/o going in the car.

 

The hood is from VIS, fitment is pretty good, install is fairly easy, just have to mess around with the hood pins, latch, and hinges. As for my suspension I'm running the tien flex coilovers w/ edfc. Hood pins aren't required, and many people have told me that it looks better with w/o them but it's personal taste as well as safety, my friend's cf hood was fine for about 2 years, with fast freeway driving and one day it just flew right off the hinges. The pins are just an extra precaution. The weight shaved off is only a few pounds, not significant enough to feel any differences. If you guys have anymore questions feel free to ask.

 

Real Nice

 

I think cf and white looks good together.Sweet ride.

 

looks real good!

 

thanks for the comments guys

 

Hood pins are a safety precaution and if any of you actually race...is a requirement if you have an aftermarket hood. Safety over looks sometimes

 

Yea on my last car.(3g eclipse) I found out why hood pins are the shizznit. To make a long story short the hood latch had a little damage. then on m way home from school the hood flies up and smashes my windsheild. I love VIS :/

O and I love the white and CF loo. Cant wait to get me one.

 

Looks hot. Now all you need is a CF front lip and smoked sidemarker to finish off.

 

I just sent you a pm. Reply back to me whenever you get a chance.

 

Very nice taste. Big fan of that look.

 

i like it without the pins, looks cool and give me an idea on my next mod.

 

thinking about the ings+1 half kit as of the moment, just all around white, unless I change my mind on the cf lip. need to come up with a clean combo that flows together, I have to fill my piggy bank up again!!! haha
