hood pins are for whatever application you feel is necessary. Many use hood pins as a security measure to compliment or replace the stock factory latch. Hoods don't only fly up on high speed cars, they fly up on street cars as well. Although, I have heard the strings attached to them tear the paint up...you might search more about hood pins.FiveLtrRiceEatr said:hood pins are only for high speed racing and from what it looks like from your sig you have a street car. So you dont need them and I dont like the look of them. Save the 219 and buy something that'll make it faster IMO

As far as the hood, I know Cervini's is said to be the best in aftermarket body parts. You generally get what you pay for.

Funny my hood wasnt trimmed and fits fine.wildstang607 said:obviously if he wants a 3" pin on hood its going to have to have pins, and the latch will not be used. Just painted a friend of mines hood and the quality was decent, but not as nice as my cervini cobra r hood. But it was decent. The downside to the harwood hood is that it will have to be trimmed across the front of the hood and across the back of the cowl opening. I would'nt bother with the harwood hood. a cervini pin on hood will cost only $199 + shipping and it is a perfect quality and fit. My next step, if the bank will cooperate is to buy a bubble hood from Joe Van Overbeek, and rid of my cervini hood for weight purposes only.
