I would like to replace the hood catch mechanism with a nice set of Hood pins, can anyone recommend a quality set? Maybe Moroso?

Thanks in advance

Hood pins? You mean the kind that stick through holes in the hood?

You can't be serious.

Rodscobra

yes

Typically...hood pins are utilized at all four corners so quick removal of an aftermarket hood...IE fiberglass...is possible...typically a race car so the entire engine may be accessed...hood pins would look like **** on a 928..in my opinion...they have always looked like crap on any car I have ever seen them on and are usually used out of necessity...and not for a better look...the only positive would be that the area would never rust since the hood is aluminum...they always rust on muscle cars no matter how well prepared...

Be careful, whit those holes on the hood your shark may sunk.

Ah... Hood pins quality , quality Hood pins ; sorry does not compute but go ahead few people have drilled holes through a $3,000 aluminum hood Just be sure to leave room for the hood scoop.

Hi

Umm...the 928s that do the 200 mph plus road racing...dont they use hood pins to avoid risk of hood lifting etc ??

I have also thought about them for my 200 plus attempts....

All the best Brett

Hey guy's my car is becoming a track car. Want to loose some weight, removal of head lights with a front splitter etc.

thanks again

Your car, do what you want -- I saw pics in the Random 928 pic thread, and frankly your car doesn't look ghetto enough for hood pins to look right on it. I think you'd be nuts to do this.

Hood pins on a 928 make baby Jesus cry...

SharkSkin

OK, now that I see the interior maybe I should take back what I said -- nahh, hood pins suck.

Yer in Edmonton.

You must be friends with that other wacky 928-drivin' Edmontonian, Mike Esik.

icsmike

These would match the pins as well...
