  • alternative to hood pins?

    Is there any safety wire or latch under the hood so that I don't have to drill my hood?

    Just buy these, you have to drill a bigger hole but they work great. I have them on my car and they work great.

      Quick latch just big and bulky and doesn't look good IMO . Been looking for something like that myself wicked.

                I did them last time I was home. They are extremely nice for the price.

                      I am about to use dzus fasteners to hold my front bumper on since I like to take it off so often. But they won't seen unless you go looking for them.

                        Dzus fasteners are about the cheapest way to do it, with buttons being about 1.50/ea and springs/plates being I think $1/each together. It's been a while since I bought any though.
