    I highly recommend stilling running your hood latch with these, they have been known to fall apart at high speeds (literally breaking apart) or not fully move into place.

    I have a set myself, they look good. Just want to keep people aware of the possible faults.

            like braden said. it is safer if you keep your stock hood latch. however its the hood that breaks apart not the actual latch. what happens is some people grind off too much off the hood to make it fit easily. which doesnt leave much for the bolts to hold on. so with enough strain it cracks the hood and pop it goes. the way i did mine is i reinforced everything so it is extremely safe. for anyone that needs help on how to install it, i can give you pointers and instructions even if you didnt buy your set from me.

            also we are currently sold out of the locking ones and only have a few of the non locking ones left. to anyone that's been waiting for me to ship these out i apologize. i've been having problems with work and some personal issues as well that i had to deal with. the first batch of orders have been shipped today.

              Binding Issues

              Just for future installs of the Aerocatch - have these on a carbon fiber hood and correct fitment is definitely the key. I hit the curved portion of the CF hood on both sides so I couldn't add the 2 screws at the end.....

              Did this in a little bit of a rush and in hindsight, should have planned the location better. Like this....

              One thing to note - mine broke due to binding. Despite some issues, you can't beat the look of these.

              Please PM me a price for locking latch. Need to replace my broken one.
