Today we are going to be installing a set of Aerocatch hood latches for a carbon hood on this Subaru WRX. Not only is it functional, but looks good.

I just did mine but I only drilled a hold on the bottom big enough for my finger so you can’t see the bracket on the bottom at all

[@ronniedarko2536]

Nice professional install.

[@jessebudelman]

Pretty sure on that hood you gotta swap the stock hood latch on to the aftermarket hood. Seen it done on other videos/channels.

[@mrbeans2425]

Dude mine rubs on the corner like that too. And it drives me fucking insane! Fittme t is OK but it's def off. And just enough it's noticeable.

[@Vinco1352]

How much would you charge to get this done man? My wife and I both just got Seibon hoods for our subies and live in CA. I’ve done most of our own mods from baking headlights to suspension but am for sure dreading putting these latches on lol. Maybe a drive to AZ will be in order...

[@JonnyBarajas]

I install the latches for $160.

Great video, we also have install videos Thank you for the content

That hood is heavy because it isn’t a full true carbon fiber hood, it is fiberglass with carbon fiber overlayed on the topside. Typical process for cheap “carbon fiber” hoods made in China like VIS. I’ll bet that vis hood weight as much as or more than the oem hood.
Instead of a sharpie, use toothpaste to transfer the mark to the hood from the pins.

Where can I get in contact with you looking to get my aero catch hood latches installed on my cf hood

[@jakeclauson9863]

Its not the factory hood latch thats weak, its the fact that the mount on the hood for the latch is basically glued to the hood and has no strength

[@JonnyBarajas]

No one said otherwise, the latch on the seibon hood is what comes apart.

[@adventured2115]

Same exact situation as I had lol (Lexus is300)

[@randallakahotwhite3828]

Dang what kind of hood ? That is nice 👌

[@JonnyBarajas]

They have a Seibon hood.

[@JakePalmer13]

This is not Seibon. It is a VIS Racing VS2 hood. Seibons don't have the rear heat extraction vent. I love my VIS hood, it just sucks that they're almost the same weight as the stock hood lol

[@Dreams-uu5uj]

Are you hiring?? (I live in Phoenix)

[@JonnyBarajas]

No, Have always ran solo.

[@Dreams-uu5uj]
