Full Carbon Fiber Hoods (2 on hand)

[PK]

that sounds a whole lot easier.

you could probably even replace "paint/nail varnish" with grease or something similar since it should rub off to mark the spot and you can easily clean it off the pins once you're done.

Yep - grease sounds good.
Besides, I don't carry nail polish in my handbag - errrr tool box.

Easy way is to just set the pins and let the hood slam down on them ...if your lucky they will make holes for you.......Just kidding.....hehe

Up here in the colonies, that's called a "manbag"...
All of us Ugg boot wearing metros are carrying them...well, except for me.

I've used that method on two hoods, while it doesn't actually make a hole, the dimple in the sheetmetal keeps the drill bit centered from the underside.
And yes, it would FUBAR a nice C/F hood.

Jo, you nearly had me convinced, especially with the hot chick reference.
Fortunately TaylorRitchie put it all back in perspective and my manhood is safe again.

Phew!!!!!!

just have one more left just to update

My g/f had a c/f hood on her cavalier. It never had a problem with coming open, but it did show it's age. We used "Honda Polish" on it. It's a spray cleaner/polisher that worked pretty well. I recommend it for any and all vehicles.

As for making marks for the holes... I have cut some holes in plastics for frame sliders on my motorcycles. I learned from doing that to use some silly putty or playdoh on the inside of the piece you are needing to drill. Stick in in the general area of the hole to be drilled, rest hood down on pins, marks are made on the doh or putty. Then drill through the mark. Volia, you have a perfectly marked/drilled hole.
