Honda S2000 Build Part 2 - How To Install Bonnet Pins (Hood Pins/Latches)

[@mightycarmods]

Why did Moog install NOS? Why did he get a fibreglass bumper? Why hasn't Marty been helping? And why does Moog have a Honda at all when we all know he'd prefer to own a Nissan? All these questions answered and more... Please thumb it up www.mightycarmods.com/blogs/news/16607448-your-honda-questions-answered

[@YumYumGetchaSum]

Just finished this project on my car! This video was super helpful. I know their hood was aluminum but mine was steel and was harder to cut through so I think my experience was a little different. Some things I would add for anyone doing this on a steel hood/bonnet: 1. I was getting a lot of smoke, dust, and fumes (fumes from the self-etching primer that was under the hood) so invest in a good mask and have a fan running. 2. I went through a number of the metal cutting wheels so buy extras. Also, when the metal cutting wheels start to get small from being worn down, set them aside to use on the tight angles later. 3. Needle nose pliers were helpful. 4. I went through an entire grinding stone between both holes. 5. It was hard to keep the Dremel from skipping even though I was expecting it. I ended up with half a dozen nicks on my hood but I was repainting it anyway. 6. I found the plate that goes underneath to hold it together to be a pain in the ass (hard to explain) so I just used the nuts and washers that came with it. Cheers.

[@LowFlyinOK]

Hey guys, When drilling metal, you actually want the bit to spin much slower. You'll make better, cleaner cuts with a slower turning bit.

[@georgeisabeast111]

depends on the size of the bit, the bigger the bit, the slower.

[@MrDeaz]

Isn't the speed more about overheating than clean cuts? You would smooth edges anyway

[@Lobstersarefabulouz]

Krede nah.. it is about the clean cut..

[@woofer2121]

you are right especially with hard steel if you spin the bit too fast you will just dull the bit and heat treat what you are drilling.

[@mightycarmods]

Just in addition to this, because the whole section is being cut out, you don't need "clean" holes. It was simply used as a locator but yes slower is better - thats why we like Hondas - LOL

[@gnagarn87]

Every other comment is about the bonnet, rust, and corrosion. So to end that let's explain it plain and simple so that everyone understands. *The bonnet is made out of aluminium so it won't rust.* Any metal that got iron in it will rust if left exposed. Aluminium doesn't have any iron in it so it won't rust. Untreated aluminium has good corrosion resistance in most environments because it forms a thin oxide layer that prevents further oxidation. So there's no panic or real reason to paint the exposed aluminium.

[@mobilePCreviews]

Things usually have to get worse before they get better if you're not doing it all at once. I'm sure once it all comes together it will look sick. I made a stupid post in the other video, giving him shit about the mods, but then I rewatched the japan drifting movie thing, and I forgot that modifying your car is about what you want to do to it. It's your money and your car, and TBH I'm thankful as hell that moog isn't stancing his s2000. I really look forward to the finished product, and I appreciate all the amazing free content these guys give us.

[@NathanSGuitar94]

Yeah stancing is the worst thing anyone can do to a car. I hate how some of the car community will hate on Moogs fully functional track-ready S2000 and then say how stanced/slammed Skylines and STIs are so awesome and great. It ruins the driveability of a great race car!

[@AR-rk9nn]

Free content? Are you fucking kidding me? They get paid per view you fucking joke of a human

[@NathanSGuitar94]

The content is absolutely free. Of course they get paid per view and from merch but it doesn't cost us, the viewers, anything.

[@SkrillMillMusic]

Im almost done with my education as a car mechanic but i still learn lots from every episode you guys make :) keep up the good work!

[@mitchellcook9830]

You should have coated the exposed metal in epoxy or plastidip or something to prevent rust, the first time it rains the rust will start...

[@mightycarmods]

It won't rust. We stripped all the paint off the bonnet of our MK3 Golf then covered it in sea salt and water and left it outside and even then we couldn't get it to rust. But if you're cutting something thats not aluminium then yes, always paint the exposed metal (like when cutting parts in the engine bay etc) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWisp2dodrSNf80

[@mitchellcook9830]

I stand corrected, the s2k is all steel except the hood, interesting... (See Category "Body") www.honda.com/newsandviews/article.aspx?id=4099-en

[@mightycarmods]

Mitchell Cook ^^ Take note everyone - this is how you 'KZbin Comment' - a meaningful conversation where we can all learn something. 10/10. And mitchells point is 100% valid - paint any exposed metal if you've cut something!

[@Obsidian762]

Mitchell Cook I stand corrected as well. I didn't even notice there were no sparks from the cutting. Of course it's aluminum lol

[@mitchellcook9830]

Obsidian762 Yea, I thought of that too after the second time I watched the video, when he was using the abrasive wheel to get it down to finished size.

[@jhalvorsen93]

I'm not one to comment on videos much but with all this hate, something has to be said. To some people, yes the front bar looks ricer and the bonnet pins might look a little plastic, but honestly these guys dont just do these mods to please the crowds. I have a sneaking suspicion that they also do these mods because it's what they want to do to their cars. They have their own personal preferences you know. I honestly just like the fact that I can watch these two mod their cars because it gives me ideas on what I can to do to my own car.

[@902isfake]

when drilling through paint make sure to put a piece of masking tape over it. it will make it so when you drill the hole the paint wont chip

[@TriniRogue]

I always like MCM videos before watching em, never have i regretted that decision

[@smnfldstrte27]

Does it add as much horsepower as putting racing stripes on it?

yes

[@Flanker84]

Actually instead of a race track mod, this can be used as a good theft deterrent if you install hood latches with locks. I find this useful in zones where the thefts use to steal stuff under your hood, like the batteries. Great DIY video, keep up the good work MCM!

[@DanDuffy071]

Clicked to see the Random Facts about the first MCM ep and this was just posted. MAAAAAAD!

[@nicksan11987z]

Awesome thanks guys this video really helped out this weekend with my install !!! The carbon fiber hood costs just over $3000 USD so it was like cutting a whole MK4 gti apart value wise. Love your videos been a fan for years. I did have a few things I learned along the way took me about 7 hours. I had to remove the headlights and chop the pins down a bit to make everything work right but everything worked out in the end just took some extra time. I thank you and my BMW now looks a heck of a lot better with a hood back on it. cant wait to see what you guys have planned next.

[@boujeePerformance]

Am I the only one that likes the bumper and hood pins?

[@DDesignsProductions]

I like them too! Bumper will look way better once it's painted!

[@navelaviator]

Tbh if he doesn't put in a turbo and Intercooler its ricey, like 100% ricey, full respect to mcm but I see no point of putting on the bumper apart from making it look "cool" (but actually it's gonna be rice)

[@Balomis]

I don't understand all the hate for MCM's S2000. I think Marty and Moog are putting together a sweet car, one that they want. The bumper and hood latches look mad! All these people screaming "rice" for everything they do. Its a Honda guys, every mod for it is gonna be rice. So calm down. As a VW fan myself, I love the look of that Honda! Great vid guys, and keep up the solid work

[@3DMachines]

Thanks you guys! The video was very well explained. I'll probably use something like this on my drift car project.

[@shoeonhead]

Best episode in a long time! Really felt like you went back to your roots and I LOVE IT.

[@lextube]

The front bumper is growing on me. I reckon it will look mad once it's painted.

[@sonikbizoom]

Always glad to see y'all back in the driveway! The Honda is coming along quite nicely.

[@roberij05]

The car was ruined when you put on that disasterous front bumper. I'm on team Marty now.

[@_Professor_Oak]

How? It's not even painted yet of course it looks weird. Are you some kind of purist who likes to keep their cars looking 100% stock?

[@sabu1297]

[@briskxd1093]

Its sopposed to look like the type s bumper from Japan the only thing different really is the little hole on the top wait till finished product before you talk shit. Also you probably don't even have a car and if you do its probably your moms mini van.

[@liljendal20]

I was actually watching some old MCM videos because I wanted a new one and had nothing to do!, one refresh later Yess! :D Awesome episode as always, keep them rolling!

[@jdog3690]

Thank you so much! I have been back and fourth on these exact same Hood pins. I typically despise Hood pins but like this but didn't know how hard they were to install. You guys rock keep on keeping on

[@FreddyGaertner94]

Won't the bonnet rost if you don't cover the cuts with some paint or other stuff ?

[@tasty2choc]

yes it will.

[@georgeisabeast111]

it's probably aluminium.

George Sharp For the american viewers 'aluminium' is 'aloooominum'. Thought I'd clear up any confusion

[@thehandlesticks66]

J Robson go fuck yourself

[@EinmaligBefasst]

George Sharp Even then it can oxidize, which can spread under the paint and look very ugly. Aluminium is a base metal.

good on em i haven't seen so much hate and so much love for a car on this show or anywhere for that matter, but i love how moog doesn't conform to what people believe to be acceptable on a car. yeah, i'd build an s2k a little differently, but it's his car and he can do what he wants with it. that's what modding is about, expressing yourself even if not everyone likes what you do to your car. keep it up guys, it's good to see the show getting back to it's roots! :)

The car community is literally one of the most hateful groups I've ever seen, and this is coming from a guy who regularly plays LoL.

[@officialsked]

The true, genuine side to the car community is great and they are mostly respectful and happy to talk to people unfortunately the more "hipster mainstream" people think its great to invade that community with overly used jokes and completely misused names where apparently moogs track car is "riced"(and just because its a honda).

[@Joseph-C]

To be fair, the updated youtube comments were designed to promote flamewars and trolling (No downvoting, but more comments = higher up) So this comment section is a just a hot pile of shit... It's really easy to insult peoples cars, so of course trolls on youtube do it, but on legit car forums and stuff like that, petty insults tend to be few and far between.

[@mightycarmods]

I wish this wasn't true but sadly in the comments section it is. What I can say, is that after travelling to places all over the world and meeting tens of thousands of car enthusiasts in real life who actually own, drive and modify their cars, it's quite the opposite. People who actually work on cars and know what goes into it are always overwhelmingly supportive. Often those without cars or have never held a spanner are the ones that leave the most critical feedback because they have made better looking and faster cars in Forza. One day when they are old enough hopefully they'll experience the joy and excitement of working on something, no matter what it is or what the internet thinks about it. Anyone who hasn't worked it out yet that cars are a personal journey probably needs to go buy one then turn a spanner on it.

[@lachlanjdm2768]

Mighty Car Mods don't ever feel the need to change something on your car just because of a youtube comment guys. the internet seems to bring out the worst in people when it comes to cars, and its good to see that you are still sticking to what you think looks good on your s2k even though so many people here seem to want to change it. its not about what other people think, its about what makes you happy!

oCre8ve turbo+vtech+nos=mx5 destroyer

[@woofer2121]

can you do that with the s2000's stock engine? I thought the compression was too high.

[@sabotshell]

Unfortunately, from reading their blog post it sounds like that is not a near or long term plan. "Why don’t you turbo charge it? Marty and I don’t want to make the same videos over and over again. So when people say “turbo charge it”, while this may be a fun car to drive in the real world, we’ve just done a complete turbo conversion on the MX5. It was expensive and took a lot of time and neither of us feels excited about doing it again right away. If we wanted to get some internet cred, we’d throw on some expensive kit, expensive wheels, an expensive engine conversion, expensive interior then do an expensive turbo conversion. $25,000 later we’d probably get a few favourable comments, and then more comments from people saying we should have left it stock."

[@TheSVERguy]

I love this build. I feel Moog is doing this stuff because it's what he wants. It'll look good when done. They know how to get street cred. Does anyone remember the video about the VW?

[@callesundberg]

Eric Santos ain't you happy about now

[@Beakz_]

Little bit of a tip for cutting odd round-ish shapes. For the rounded off areas, find a drill bit that matches the radius of the edge of the shape as close as you can, if not smaller. Find the center and drill a pilot hole, then your "edge hole" and repeat for the your other round corners/edges. Finish off by cutting out the area between your holes and file to perfection! I did this for a custom PC window and it worked out fine. Just be careful and measure your drills and cuts as best you can. Love the show guys, hope your come back to Los Angeles when I get my first car! '06 WRX wagon hopefully ;)

[@enrosamygga]

How many kilowatts does these do? Greetings from Sweden!

[@FutureSEAL23]

Only time will tell what Moog thinks guys. They said they've set plans for this car, things they haven't experienced before mainly. And if putting on a brand name bumper wasn't in the budget, all well. Once this comes together it'll be the same, properly mad, mcm style we all know and love. Even if it isn't, its his car, his taste, his decisions, and you can't hate on that.

[@WT0708]

Can you please do hydrolic handbrake

this guy knows it

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

[@moesix]

Good to see that it looks like an authentic AeroCatch. My aerocatch's saved my CF hood from being destroyed into many pieces, and despite the hood taking off part of the top of my radiator end tank the aerocatch's kept the hood so tight it actually allowed me to putter to the police station and await a tow truck in my last crash. Meanwhile every counterfeit aerocatch I've ever seen has broken from just opening and closing them :-/. My aerocatch's still work after the crash...

[@johnnyk617]

A small bit of touchup paint goes a long way

[@guillaumeberton6218]

These are great for cf hoods. One note of caution though, for people with bad winters (Canada for example) a little ice will lock the mechanism (from snow melting/freezing or simply rain/freezing). It does get tiresome after a while to have to heat it up to open it. Being in plastic, it's also more fragile in cold so when you operate it at -20deg or less, you need to be extra gentle not to put too much force in opening the latch.

[@offtrackpl]

I always like what you guys are doing but if I have to be honest, This looks bad and cheap, The car looked clean before, now it looks plastic

[@dsofe4879]

I'm sure they'll clean it up, were only at part one of the build so far..

[@offtrackpl]

By clean I meant that there was nothing on the bonnet and the car looked better for me

[@mightycarmods]

Not many people I know complain about the look of a piece of bread before it's even turned into a sandwich... Or complain to their hairdresser when only half their hair has been cut. We're midway through a build... come back when it's finished (and it's all the same colour!) and then see what you think? You may like it or you may not but at least you'll be judging a finished car...

[@dsofe4879]

Mighty Car Mods amen to that. can't wait to see the rest.

[@offtrackpl]

Yeah, at the end it may look maaad and I'm sure it will, I just like the car to be as "clean" as possible

[@lex3579]

Reading these comments is like why are these people watching MCM ? Just to talk crap ? Well I guess that's why they have a show and these haters do not . This is a great show and they do good work not rice work and they tell you do what you want don't do any thing because of them . Everyone has different taste even Moog and Marty have different taste but it is just a show and for some people it is a very useful show for those at home trying to do different upgrades themselves at home at need videos to show them the basics on how to .

better to put masking tape arround the whole to put some paint on blank grinded metal . otherwise it will start to corrode after some bad weather turns ;) just an idea. or you trade the honda for a real car like a subaru or toyota

[@BornToDrive1500E]

Ok, but now, on the places where you have drilled the bonnet, there is some exposed metal and since some water can get there it may start to rust. I don't know but if that bonnet is made out of alloy then I guess its fine. You should have said it the video for all the people who have normal steel bonnets that they should put some kind of primer (is it called that way in english? the first coat you spray for protection from rust).

[@TheTubaMan2]

[@user-dj1hy6zc6q]

No primer over the exposed bare metal? A little rubber strip around it won't protect it from rusting.

[@ramhoves]

That's what I was thinking too. At least put a little primer on with some q-tips

[@DeathMetalFunZone]

ty_ger it's actually an aluminum hood, so it doesn't need primer/paint. typically yes, you are 100% correct when working with a corrosive metal

[@user-dj1hy6zc6q]

DeathMetalFunZone So, aluminum doesn't corrode? Are you serious?

[@RhodokTribesman]

+ty_ger aluminum makes a layer of oxidation called aluminum oxide that prevents it from rust

[@ramhoves]

aluminum does not rust you are correct. rust is a term used for corrosion on steel. Aluminum does corrode just like every other metal. Metal corrosion class 101 is complete.

looks like part 2 is released before part 1, because you guys changed the name..

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

have an awesome day to you and everyone else in the comments i would have thought a slightly bigger piece of cardboard that caught the front end of the hood AND the side would have made positioning both sides symmetrically much easier. the positioning looks perfect how you did it anyway!!!other than that little tidbit,video was brilliant and keep up the amazing work,thanks for your time and content

[@gtastuntcrew302]

I don't care what anyone says!! That aftermarket front bumper is sick!! :D!

[@MONSTERRALLY100]

I can see some full track mods coming soon. Roll cage, engine fire extinguisher, bodykit and tons more.

[@Avcchand]

Thank God.... Another episode came,i died waiting...Thanks Mcm we love your videos

[@bryanmayo7317]

I love u guys channel just seems like u don't upload that often but still keep up the good work can't wait to hear that s2000 with exhaust!

[@derkthelion]

I love the s2k !!!! I haven't even seen the hole build but It looks MAD !!!! And I don't get why people hate on Hondas and call it "rice" wen Hondas are cool well come to think of it anything from Japan is cool. But keep up the mad work on the Miata chopper moog !!! And nice music by the way.

[@declanjones8015]

Amazing video, you guys never fail to inspire me!

[@CreArtStuff]

to soon to judge, but pretty sure this project is gonna be mad! awesome video guys

[@Dale_Groves]

Been watching you guys for what feels like forever. Awesome work and evolution of the show! Please do a "budget" supercharger build on the Honda, similar to the Miata build. It would be interesting to see if there are any OE chargers that can be adapted to fit.... Failing that it would just be awesome to hear that VTEC/charger whine 👍

[@king.dannyman]

Mighty Car Mods Moog is really loving the S2K

[@Lambo6fo]

I love these guys! Been watching them for years. Keep up the great work :)

[@Crustyto3z]

So glad you guys use the s2000 as the project car, In stead of the miata

[@MrGarycharters]

Mint. Just had to do the the weekly grocery shop, come home see this, time for a beer!

[@Microang]

Love your show guys. You guys have done a lot of engine swaps, turboing, etc. But could you ever do a video on a auto to manual swap for those that are not swapping the motor? That's something I'll have to tackle soon....

[@TheDJGUNTER]

honestly i think people are hating on moog waaaayyyy to much and i like what hes done with the car because its different from Marty lol everyone complaining just wants Moog to do the same thing as Marty did and there a show they have to switch things up and btw i think Moogs front bumper looks sick and i have a feeling he will paint it!

[@brokenhearted1231]

Awesome video guys I can't wait to see this car finished....

[@mikeoldfield7807]

Marty's working on the Honda. Marty's working on the Honda. Marty's working on the Honda. Marty's working on the Honda. Marty's working on the Honda. Wow! :) Nice job. Still not overly keen on that bumper, but hey, your car your rules, if you like it, job's a goon'un :)

[@ojmbvids]

Love that toothpaste idea, so simple, I can't believe I've never thought of it! The number of times that would have come in useful for knowing where to cut/drill!

[@Dimorac]

That looks BEAUTIFUL slick as hell, keep it up guys !

[@Cobrastarzz1]

Mighty Car Mods Some folks are giving you guys a really hard time in these comments, i like the way you guy are doing things i haven't before seen you do on MCM tho, e.g. the fibre glass front bumper and installing a NOS system :) also love those RPF1's they're popular rims but they are popular for very good reasons (Y)

[@cameronstain4793]

they look a little like they're uneven. they look good other than that. LOVE YOUR WORK GUYS!

[@deadguy237]

ok guys i hope you read this comment. i read the blog about the s2000. here is one that you guys have never done before. i here you on the no turbo for a wile. but this is kinda cheap and i am shur people want to know how to do it. why not install some upgraded cams for the k20 motor. cams and cheap and you can do it and home. i think it would make a good video and it will help out with the NOS two. good luck guys.

[@MTTT-bl2uo]

In Canada, those latches would turn into a rusty disaster pretty quickly unless you put some sort of sealant in there to prevent moisture and salt from getting under the sides of the latch and onto the now exposed metal edge. Unless the car is used only in summer and kept in a warm dry garage for the whole winter.

[@кяуртіс]

THIS is the type of MCM I miss, not the new crap having thousand dollar tools and engine swaps etc.

[@christophermarkland6362]

I feel like you guys are killing this S2K...

[@jaime2096]

I love your mods and tutorial videos guys! Moog actually inspire me and persuade me to get an s2000. but this looks horrible to me The s200 is such a clean car. I would rather spend my money buying more Unicorn power! coming from an s2000 owner. just saying!!
