SupraAyf Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 The car is not quite finished as you can see the but Twisted Vision boys have now fully fitted my Aerocatch pins. The 3rd pic doesn't have the lever fully depressed but it is fully flushed when pushed down. They have fully replaced the locking mechanism of the bonnet A right bugger to fit but worth every penny and every minute IMHO. I'll post some better pics when my car is rolled out in a few days time. Cheers All;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I saw these in this months Banzai.... I must say they look/are pretty cool - just a lot of hassle to fit i think. Well done for fitting them though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Looks great, i brought some last week off ebay, gonna have a go at fitting them sunday:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Nice one mate. That car is looking very smart Andrew. I was going to use Aerocatch pins myself, but the fitting put me off as I wouldn't have a clue where to start. Looks much better with the flush look like yours though.

michael Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 They are a lot bigger than I thought. Are they staying that colour or being painted to match the bonnet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you can see them in this photo but the holes need a steady hand indeed. Are you replacing the bonnet catches etc too or moving the pins elsewhere?

SupraAyf Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 my bonnet came with pre-cut holes I'll have to have a look at it over the weekend and see where ypur kit is designed to fit the Supra frame. It's not in the same area as my set-up - yours goes across the bonnet doesn't it (and in the corners?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
