Guys w/CF hoods
Wassup, im just wondering how many of you guys with CF hoods actually cut the holes for washer nozzles or do you just leave em out? I figured the car would look cleaner w/o them but then the winshield gets nasty after a snowstorm

APC doesnt have holes drilled either.
I daily drive my 91 hatch, and I have never used the squirters. If your gonna be in snow, I would say drill or relocate. But if its rain/normal wearther, dont bother.

Just curious what hoodpins have to do with windshield squirter holes.
And how can hoodpins be ricey when they serve a functional purpose (In case the hood latch fails, carbon fiber hoods without hoodpins can pop back at highway speeds and smash the windshield and roof of the car, at the same time blocking vision, which can be a pretty dangerous situation)

Spread the gospel truth.
My c/f d/b was total crap as well...white edging and a fairly large crack underneath.
