Default Aero Catch Hood Pins

Got my hood pins finished up today. Since I wont have a factory latch any longer I wanted to have the cleanest setup I could find. The install brackets from Password JDM make for such a clean finished product.

I am referring to the billet plates. And install is a breeze if you take your time......you cant replace material if you cut to much. The only tools required are a dremel with cutting wheel and sanding drums, a few drill bits, allen head socket, about 2 hours.

The billet plates go inside the hood instead of having to cut a large hole through the bottom side of your hood. The finished product is very clean as compared to the alternative. Also they are more visually appealing than standard hood pins.

If any pics are wanted of the billet bracket let me know, as I will be removing the pins for paint and body work.

These plates would be rather easy to make after I received them. If you have any spare aluminum laying around and a tap and die set.
