Okay so I bought a carbon fiber hood, and I was informed by almost everyone on the forums here to get the flush mounted hood pins from that jdm website. I did that, and now I cannot find anyone who wants to put in the hood pins for me. I have contacted 18 (literally 18) body shops nearby and every single one of them just says they dont wanna touch it :cry: :cry: :cry: Does anyone in nj know where i can go or even somewhere in eastern PA southern NY or something... somebody please help!!

Because Carbon Fiber is tricky to drill.

OP, Where are you in NJ?

Oh I didn't know it required drilling. I want a cf hood and a cf trunk with a spoiler built on it. So bad***

lol

Sometimes I get scared when I close my CF trunk.. I totally understand why no one wants to touch it!

It must be annoying having that hood and not being able to install it properly! :tisk:
