Do you happen to have Kelleyefields hood dampeners?

I have them and I'm worried about having them with these parts and risking cracking the resin.

I have put the hood dampers on the JDM Password without any problems. I would suggest getting a rubber washer to put between the carbon fiber and the post and do not overtighten and you should be fine.

Tony I attempted just this thing with red as well on minr and failed bigtime. I knew it would look good but just did not have the skills to pull it off. Once I find another set I will send these out to you to have done. You are the man.

This is the perfect solution.
