Hood pins

  • Sponsors (?)


what is billet steel? Those upr ones are made of billet steel and polished...

Those UPR pins are just cut from a block of steel.

You know, it's funny. You often hear people say that hood pins are for ricers or posers. But I guarantee those people haven't had a hood fly up on them! I once bought a car with a cowl induction hood on it, and the first time I took it out on the highway, the hood flew up and did a lot of damage. (very expensive)

Good hood pins are cheap insurance. As far as I'm concerned, form follows function, and hood pins keep the hood down!
 
i got these and im very happy with them!!! no more worries of hood flying up!

Can someone post a pic of where they mounted them on the core support? I had read to remove the bump stop and mount them there. So i removed the drivers side and the hood sat to low. So im thinking the holes on the inner side of the bumpstops.


You can adjust the height of the hood pins by turning them and place some pieces of cut vacuum hose over the pins and then when you drop the hood down, the hose will keep the hood from rattling and also do the same function as the original bumpstops and raise up the hood level.
