Vis Racing Hood Install?

Bshields22 · 11-15-2016, 04:06 PM

Hey guys,

Thought I'd throw this to the masses since I couldn't find it in the DIY section. Anyone have experience installing the Vis Racing Carbon Fiber hoods? Could you provide steps? Online it says professional install required. Did not expect that was required if you plan on keeping the carbon fiber hood exposed and not painted.

Also, I see that you need may need hood pins. Is that true, if so, why?

Thanks,

Ben
