I am not a big fan of them but I am going to need some for my Carbon hood. Just don't want to take the risk. Anyone know where to get some black ones?

just paint them. I plan on doing this to my hood locks. Just the big silver circles not the actual part you stick the key into. I too cannot stand how there's just huge silver circles..

 

I agree with jefs0ng...paint that shiet black

 

Thanks guys. I was looking for an alternative to painting but I might just have to that. Maybe anodize? Anyone have any links to where I can find some hood pins? Until now I always thought they were rice and never payed much attention.

What they said.

 

i would get "mr.gasket" hood locks......they come with a key to unlock them and they have a flat part that is easily paintable
here a friends car with them....

 

that looks nice

 

I just painted mine black.

 

Gunmetal is the darkest I've seen.

 

Ok...now where do I get them?

Thanks guys. I think I will most likely go with the JDM Honda parts ones. But I want to check out the MR. Gaskets one first. Probrably cheaper since the others are JDM yo'!

you could paint them but the paint would scartch up in no time

why? it's not like you're touching the part you paint black.. ever heard of more than one layer of paint?
