I was just lookin around and thinkin it would be nice for my car to drop some of her fat . So in a few days i goin to go thur and see what can be taken out and wonderin if i get a CFH do you have to have hood pins?? I really dont want those on my car but would love how light it is. so my Q is. Does anyone make a CFH that dont need hood pins and would just look OEM?

you dont need hood pins if you properly mount the latch. it says, we highly reccomend, but than again a mcdonalds cofee cup tells you not to drink it when its hot. if you mount up the latch correctly and to oem standards, you will be ok.

DOES ANYONE MAKE A COWLED HOOD INSTEAD OF VENTED? I HAVE A ISSUE WITH HOOD SKELETON CLEARANCE (RB20DET W/ SKYLINE X-MEMBER) AND I NEED A HOOD THAT WILL CLEAR THE RAISED HEIGHT.
