AeroCatch 120-2000 Plus Flush Mount Hood Pin Kit

Above Panel | Non-Locking | Black with Red Anodized Aluminum Pins | Genuine UK Made

The original flush-mount hood pin system that defined the category. AeroCatch remains the most recognized name in aerodynamic panel fasteners, with every design independently verified at certified UK testing facilities and used by professional race teams across the globe. Swap out unsightly, bulky hood pins for a streamlined, flush-mount alternative that performs as impressively as it looks.

Product Overview

When it comes to modern panel fastening, the AeroCatch 120-2000 Plus stands in a class of its own. Built for hoods, trunks, tailgates, and bonnets, this above-panel system offers a refined, low-profile appearance backed by race-tested retention strength. Where conventional hood pins rise above the surface and generate aerodynamic disturbance, the AeroCatch closes almost level with the panel—enhancing airflow while delivering a motorsport-inspired finish.

From the fastest machines on the circuit to carefully curated street builds, AeroCatch hood pins are a fixture in winning garages. Whether your project is a full-time track weapon, a daily-driven performance car, or a show-ready masterpiece, the 120-2000 Plus offers an ideal combination of safety, functionality, and visual appeal.

Safety Notice

IMPORTANT: Lightweight, composite, and aftermarket hoods must be secured with hood pins for safety. AeroCatch products serve as primary or secondary latching systems to prevent hood lift at speed. Always confirm latches are completely engaged before operating the vehicle. The exposed open handle acts as an essential visual cue that the latch is not secured.
