Aerocatch Hood Pins on Monster Sports CF Hood

We got bored one day so we decided to put in Aerocatch Hood Pins on Mr. Park's Monster Sports CF hood

Outlining the hood pin on the hood

Soo Jin didn't want to mess up the outside so he decided to cut the inside

Smoothing up the sides now

Clean Cut

All Done and installed



One last Kenny Approved

Rob Approved!!!

WTF is this doing in an Evo X sub topic?

Regardless, I have always disliked hood pins, even ones that work.

pictures of it actually opened up. Every install of the aerocatches i've seen had to be moved from the given chassis mounting points since for it to fit the latch won't sit flush with the hood like you have it. I'd curious to see how you guys got the pin to go thru the latch and have it sit flush.

yea Rob i remmeber how yours looked on your old CT9A. I ran into the same problem installing mine. Curious how they overcame that... I remember the pinshad a 5 degrees clearence of sway from the hole and afterards its won't fit into the actual slot and latch correctly. If they got it to work somehow sitting flush like that i may rethink about mine.

Post up pictures with the latches open!
