the stock hood shocks will have to be removed, and/or changed to a lessor pressure rating, due to the reduced weight of the hood.

Cheston,
Good job on the group deal. What's the emergency latch cable? This is what came into my mind....Is it like you are going 120+ mph and the CF hood pops open. You head for this handle in the car to pull the hood back down. LOL The thing better have some crazy *** pulley system or you would have to be superman to pull hard enough for the hood to close. I don't know. School me please Cheston!!!!

i was think Eject handle, but that would be a waste of $500.
the cable is this:
hardened steel braid, with a clip at the end that you attach to one end of the car frame and the other to the the hood..
so if the latch DOES snap, the e-cable will prevent the hood from lifting too high.
else. hood pins. but eh.
