If your getting a carbon fiber hood, make sure you get good(brand name) hood pins.

Since Carbon fiber is really hard to bend, if you were to get into an accident, it won't bend like aluminum and can do some damage.


There's a post on Honda-tech where a guy's friend got into an accident and since the CF hood didn't bend, it went throught the windsheild and cut done sever damage to the guy.

don't you need pins? say for example, you're driving really fast and wind gets under your hood and flys up in the middle of the freeway. then you wreck and die, just because you wanted a cleaner look without pins.
