yes you win, I fail. I actually need hoodpins because of the fact that I have no upper rad support = no hood latch mechanism. Done so because of pushing the rad forward 4" with EG33 inplace. Otherwise I wouldn’t run them either. Taco’ed the hood and took out the front glass. FML ---

Damn, dude. How fast were you going? I lost a hood one day when I worked at alpin haus. Going down the northway at 80 in their Escort parts car. The thing released somehow and nobody ever told me the secondary catch broke so they took it out. WAAAMMMO right off the windshield! I drove to the nearest exit looking through the 3 inch section between the hood and the dash! lol That shit got hood pins on the ride back to a-dam. lol ---
