I have the stock latch, but I want to upgrade to pins. Just dont have the money right now. They arent hard to put in are they?

Ehh, on our hood they are kindof hard to install. I did mine myself, but I would have a shop do them unless you're really handy. That being said, I think they look awesome. I bought mine from American Muscle. Only $35 without the discount we get.

I had the shop do them when it was painted, they said it was a pain though.

I need to figure out where I could buy some mesh/grill that is very similiar to my upper/lower grille.

Out of the three I like the one with the wider gaps, it matches your grills. Do they make these inserts or are you going to fab this up?

I have looked on the inter-web and haven't found anyone that sells grille inserts for this hood, even places that sell the hood. If anyone knows anywhere that would sell something I could fab up that would be great.
