    Reinforcement for Hood Latch Pins?

    Hey Guys,
    I am going to install some Aerocatch hood latches this weekend. The sheet metal of the radiator support is relatively thin (E46 M3). For those that have installed pins in this area, did you do any type of reinforcement around the pin area when you installed the latches.
    Thanks

    No reinforcement. I used grade 5 washers under the pins (both sides)
