Ok this may be a stupid question, but I've done a search and google and on this site, and came up with nothing. All the google results were import sites with $250 pins, or the cheap ass $10 ones that rust. I had a Cincy Composites hood that flew up and busted my roof and window in a fox a few years ago, and don't want to go through that again. Who has what hood pins? I just want some that look good and won't rust. Doesn't need to be car show quality. I've had cheap ones that do the job, but they look like crap after a month.

Id go with the Aerocatch ones. Yes, they are expensive but they are worth it.

I haven't had any problem with my $10 set but to each their own...

Everyone of the cheap sets I buy (Autozone, Advance Auto)rust within a month or two. I don't have a garage yet so sadly she's exposed to the elements for now. Where did you get yours?

I don't mind spending around 75, but 100+ is a little much.

We have used the hood pin sets off of old mopars. The A12 six pack B-bodies had great ones along with the E-bodies. Usually around $80-120 a set depending on where you get them.
