CUSCO Black Aluminum Hood Pin Set
For 1983–1987 Toyota Corolla AE86 – Universal Custom-Fit Hood Application
Overview
The CUSCO Black Aluminum Hood Pin Set is a competition-style hood retention system designed for securely fastening lightweight and modified hoods. It is particularly well suited to FRP and carbon-fiber hood applications, helping prevent unwanted hood movement or opening from vibration and wind pressure.
This version features black aluminum components with a wire-style retaining design, combining functional hood security with a classic Japanese motorsport appearance.
Key Features

- Wire-style hood pin design
- Helps securely retain lightweight and modified hoods
- Suitable for FRP, carbon-fiber, and other custom hood installations
- Helps resist unwanted hood opening from wind pressure and vibration
- Universal design allows custom positioning for the vehicle and hood configuration

Universal Hood Retention Design
Unlike a vehicle-specific bolt-on hood latch component, this CUSCO hood pin set is designed for universal custom installation. The mounting position can be selected around the hood structure and available support points on the vehicle.
The external pin arrangement provides a straightforward visual confirmation that the hood is secured before driving, while the retaining wires help keep the removable locking components attached to the assembly.
