I just got the carbon fibre GT front and rear lids from Neo 914 and I am very pleased! The look beautiful over 90% of the surface, and need lots of help on the other 10%. I'm not too worried because I've fixed plenty of fibreglass and epoxy surboards, and the delam and holes in these lids will be a very similar exercise.

BUT, rather than patch the holes someone (maybe it was you!) drilled in the front lid I might actually put in the hood pins. The idea I guess was to go for the 914 GT look with the pins in the hood. After doing the famous Search on 914 Garage, I can't seem to locate a source, or even a decent picture, of the 914 GT front hood pins. Acutally, there is another 914 GT web page, Armando's (spelling?), that shows the backing plates and some hardware, but not the top view of the finished look.

Anybody know a good source for nice looking pins to fill the approx. 1/2 inch dia. holes (4) in the front of this hood? Any pictures of finished options would be awesome too!
