no pins, because its not a civic. as for fitment, it took about an hour to get right, and it'll sit nice an flush.

Ah man. Get some better pics and some info. My hood has a bunch of small dents, would love something like that.

From what I can see it looks like really good quality.

Thanks for the compliments guys. It's MUCH lighter than stock. Just trying to get it a tiny bit more flush but I love it. Just had the car washed tonight as well so I took a few more shots. Enjoy.







The spots on the 3rd picture by the way are from my camera, they are not on the hood.

I was planning on selling it a few times actually, but its just a car you become addicted to honestly. There's really no other car to me like driving this car. I'm going to keep it for now and do a few fun mods...nothing too crazy but its a great car and I know if I sell it I'd regret it. I have to see if I like the C63 enough to trade.
