Nice work, even if you never do them, it's good to get all of us getting out of our ruts with the semi-small amount of "easy mods." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serge Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Interesting. But I am wondering... we have two huge locks on each side of the hood. If those don't hold, why would two little pins do any better? I don't understand the reason for it. Unless someone could enlighten me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hood pins always meant badass to me growin up at the dragraces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu Posted April 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 It presents a euro/muscle/even rice mix to the car that I think might look good. As for not doing the things I say, I do them all in time. As of now, I'm about to order these hoodpins and in the next month or so I'll have shaved my doorhandles. Also, I've never had a problem with the hood not locking with the stock, so these little pins will likely do the same job, maybe little worse, maybe a little better. Who knows? I'll try it.

No idea about it just saw it. Anyone know where to get? What I'm talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'd go with locking hood pins so people can't just pop your hood at will. But thats just me... after all I had them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
