Default Hoodpin Write-Up

There's a great write-up on how to install functional hoodpins in the S197 section. I searched for one regarding New Edge Mustangs but had no luck. Are you all aware of any such thread? I'd like to put some nice-looking, functional black hoodpins on my baby.

^ +1. Do it to a dime-a-dozen GT, not a Mach.

^^^ Eehhh..
Hood pins belong on a Mach, they look naked without them, and not a good naked BTW.

hood pins only serve a purpose and thats if you get an aftermarket fiberglass / carbon fiber hood. i see no point in doing it to a stock hood as the latch holds fine, i had no problems at 130mph.
