Are the Hood Pins a necessity on the VIS Carbon Fiber Hoods? I like the look of the Hoods but not the Pins.

thanks

Not a necessity but very good idea to have. I was not going to put them on my car at first, then some horror stories that i have heard about the hood latch breaking, the hood wripping off, taking the window and roof with it made me get some. Some will say yes, others will say no, I think it is better to be safe than sorry.

You might be going to the University of Tennessee?

It's awesome, but I drank too much, partied too much, and chased too many girls this first semester. It was my freshman year up there, I'm only 18.

It's a fun time man, and I need a roommate next year. :)

I got in with a 3.25 GPA and a 28 ACT score.

My roommate in my dorm got in with a 2.75 and a 22.

It's not hard to get in, just get your applications in. If you want anymore info on the town or the school, or anything feel free to IM me at Sleeper0015 or PM me on the site.
 
VIS VIS Just like everyone else has said, sure I don't own one but I've seen them and they are definately very very nice
