These are hood LOCKS I have a circular key to unlock both sides. You can buy this lock kit from Mr. Gasket I believe, I bought it at some speed shop in town.

There should be one in my profile link. Real easy to do, but know I wish I had looked for some that are stainless steel because the crome one start to rust. They look pretty good to me but I had to have them so my hood would not fly up.

If I remember correctly the paint itself was around 3-3500 bucks. Its brighter than arctic white. The stripes were painted by KID he does alot of stuff for lowrider mag's and does mainly hotrods. he does a good job on jetski's also. He charged me $350.00 or so and warranty's the work for life.

TD makes those hood locks. I just looked at the package I have on my desk. I bought them, but haven't worked up the courage to drill holes in my hood yet. If I could get a replacement for my hood if I screwed up I would do it, but it's irreplacable.
