For a ricer yes. But not for a muscle car i don't think I have ever seen a muscle car with hood pins and a carbon fibre hood. or in that case any muscle car with a carbon fibre hood........ wallbash:[/quote:9d7f5]wow dude there are a shit load of cars that put carbon fiber hoods. most race cars are made out of carbon fiber...nothing wrong with it.

Are you fucking insane?

Most old muscle cars ive seen have hood pins, 4 of them so they can just pop the pins and take the entire hood off so they can easily work on the motor. oOo:

With hondas though its so weird because their hoods bend all the way back and touch the fucking windshield so you can swap motors out easily.

[quote="Unknown_Sniper":cda6f]The only thing I dont like about that mustang other than the price which will probably be insanely high is the gold stripe. I hate gold/champagne/bronze on cars. It makes me physically sick and Ive thrown up from riding in a car that color before. I cannot stand it at all.[/quote:cda6f]

It's a throw back from the '66 Hertz Shelby Mustang. I'll be seeing that car on Monday at the NY Auto show. I'll post pics

I saw an integra with hood pins on a hood that looked like the kid sanded off the paint and sprayed primer on it.

I watched the Barrett-Jackson Auction last night and a 2007 Shelby Cobra GT500 went for like $600,000-$700,000 ed: it was one of the two. It came with a MAC tool box.

I was just asking myself "why would anyone pay that much!"
