Definitely have a shaking problem above 55 of 60. will probably get the hidden hood pins. Any body know enough about fiberglass to know if

Thanks! I'm very happy with it. While they had it I had the front bumper repainted, a door dent fixed and some scratched polished out. it all came out better than I expected.
