    I was thinking of upgrading but wanted to know if you used hood dampers or hood pins to secure it?

    Thank you! The carbon fiber hood makes your car standout!!!

    The leather is Clazzio leather that I got from Rodney aka Hawaiianbuilt. I got 3 yards, enough to do the four doors, then had them installed at a upholstery shop. I brought the panels in for them to work on. The original cloth panel is removeable, but you have to melt the plastic 'tabs' that hold it to the rest of the panel. I had them do the double stitching in ivory to match the seat covers which should be here soon. Rodney can give you guys info on getting the extra leather.

    thank you !!

    The sales rep recommended me that I use hood pins etc.. I test drove it today on highway, going 100-130km speed, and it was ok, I don't think I will get hood pins. I don't like the look of it

    Got my car serviced at Toyota yesterday, whole service was recorded on dash cam, they had no idea. Lots of funny comments. Will upload videos etc... apparently they were all over the CF hood, coilovers, and the electronic shift gear, haha
