I have a fiberglass hood and didn't actually need them. I've heard some say you should get pins with one and some say you don't need them. I would think as long as your hood latch is operating properly and it's engaging the mechanism, it should secure the hood down.

I have hood pins but they are only there for looks really, I don't think my hood is fiberglass but I don't see why that would matter. Like Eagle said, if your hood latch is working good I don't see why you would NEED them. I do think hood pins look good though. JMO

I hate seeing the shine of the tail lights.....it means I'm loosing.

Cervini's is the way to go for any aftermarket body anything. You might get a cheaper price from "the other guy" but it will catch up to you more then likely, in the prep work, and the fitment $$. Just my $0.02


I wouldn't hesitate to go with Harwood either.

LoL, loosing is just means you need more goodies!

If you've seen Ghost Rider, there is a small part where the girl drives off in a black '94-'95. That's sexy! A hot girl driving a hot car............................................... wait what was I saying?
