I started to install the AeroCatch hood pins.....

I took pictures with my good camera too. These are from my phone. I'll post up the whole install tomorrow......As long as I finished the other side.

Somewhat surprised you didn't get the locking ones, but that carbon fiber sure does look nice.

Nice work JJ. I think I would have had to throw up a couple of times before I actually made the cuts. LOL.

The cutting was actually really easy. What puzzles me is after marking everything and centering everything, once I installed the latch it didn't line up with the post....I spent more frick'n time trying to hollow out the stock hole in the top radiator support to line up the post than I did cutting..
