I just bought the seibon TS hood and some aerotech pins, this install write up is awesome, extremely detailed! Looks like the pins are going to be fun.
I have a couple questions for ya...

Do you need to install the 2 stock hood latching parts when you already have the pins? I thought that was the point of the the pins... to be able to open the hood without having to pull the lever inside the car (and to make everything a little lighter by removing all the stock hood locking stuff... even though these carbon fiber hoods weigh more than the stock hood Haha!)

Where did you purchase the new washer fluid lines/nozzles and hood seal? I found them on courtesy parts, $84 for the seal and $67 for the washer fluid stuff, kinda pricey but whatever
