so you guys with carbon fiber hoods or experience with them,
what's your opinion on hood pins? Are they absolutely necessary? I've heard many horror stories and I've also seen people go without them for years. I don't intend to race/track my celica, just driving around town and the occasional spirited driving. I love the look of a clean hood but don't want to smash my hood and windshield if that's the cost. I also don't want to drill and cut into if not necessary. lemme know what u guys think. PLEASE VOTE. every vote counts unlike other elections. lol --------------------  *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

ah! true. forgot that u would need precision cuts for that. and I'm not up for that.
yeah cf "look" on carbon might look worse than plain black. thanks for all the feedback guys. -------------------- *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |
