Originally posted by Gemini_CF_hood the reson your hood shakes too much is because:
1. your latch is not deep enough
2. your hood sits too high on the bumper and fender
3. there are some gaps between your hood and bumper. when the wind goes in..then
4. your latch is fiberglassed on the hood. not bloted on
try to lower your latch catcher a little bit. see how it worrks
m
the latch is the one on the actual hood or on the car?? and how can i adjust that?

Where did you get ur latch from? My hood shakes way to much at high speeds... and I don't want hood pins or anything like that. Any suggestions?
Be careful! As you probably already know, CF hood are notorious to flying up, breaking itself and the windshield, not to mention causing an accident after blinding you. If your hood's shaking, that's definitely not a good sign!
