Ebay CF hoods for the tC are way overpriced, IMO.... i'm not really trusting of any of them either..

I just ordered a CF from Motor Fx but i was thinkin' about canceling it because i heard they fade and never fit like stock.. but i also thought out gettin the pins.. (the ones you cant see) they lock down undercover with a key lock to keep it tight.. i dont like the idea of it fading or whatever.. i live out in the antelope valley so it gets hot as hell out here.. im not too sure how long a hood would last out here.. and it's kind of a lota money to just throw away on something that wont stay in good shape! $400

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't "most" newer cf hoods have some sort of clear coat on them that helps prevent fading? On another note, I never understood the whole pin thing...anyone care to explain?

no your right. they do


hood pins basically give the hood another place to latch onto. because they're so light they tend to have a lot of uplift. so more pins keep it in place
