Hood Pin Poll

HMUSN · August 25th, 2007, 03:43 PM

I vote no.

Emay · August 25th, 2007, 03:44 PM

yup, pins needed.

HMUSN · August 25th, 2007, 03:49 PM

^ they look great on your car man... I don't something about the flat black and the clear coat just doesn't do it for me when including hood pins.

but hey that's only my opinion.

Emay · August 25th, 2007, 03:54 PM

Everyone likes something different. I agree there may be a contrast thing, but if I were Regency, I'd have the pins powder coated flat black and make them be more towards the center of the hood rather than the sides like mine.

I also took into account that he's driving the car like he stole it. Last thing I want anyone to experience is a failed latch at 135+ mile an hour. Especially since he's playing on the street. Knowing he'll frequently be making the high speed blasts, was more of what I based my yes vote on.

I say no. It will disrupt the clean lines of the car. The hood is stock anyway. If Ford made the car able to do 150mph I think they would have designed a latch to withstand it.

Regency 2007 · August 25th, 2007, 04:59 PM

How much is the price of good hood pins? Do they rust? I like the ones with the lines connected to them from the undetside of the hood like the old stangs

Regency 2007 · August 25th, 2007, 05:01 PM

I need a professional to photoshop dark head lense and turn signals on my car, along with hood pins. That would be great if anyone could do it.... anyone good in here?

HMUSN · August 25th, 2007, 05:01 PM

they are cheap enough.

1-2 hundred.

they only rust if you buy cheap ones that aren't stainless steel

06RedfireGT · August 25th, 2007, 05:02 PM

When Zip gets on talk to him about it. He has the hood pins on his car.

leebunnyz · August 25th, 2007, 05:58 PM

i say yes, i think some shiney stainless steel hood pins would even compliment your chrome rims

nba1341 · August 25th, 2007, 06:23 PM

Regency 2007 · August 25th, 2007, 07:13 PM

I wait til Zip can answer my questions
Best place to order?
What kind?
Rust?
Install?

Nameless · August 25th, 2007, 07:19 PM

I think a set of Shelby hoodpins would look just absolutely SICK on your car Regency! I installed the FRPP hoodpins on mine, but when I saw a friend with the Shelby ones, they just looked alot cleaner. I think they may be chromed...not sure. Oh, and they add about 10 rwhp!

You should be able to install yourself and save some dough. I installed mine and I'm not even that tech savvy. I even put up a really sweet write up on it..*cough* the write up that Zip used *cough*
