The hoods are aluminum and aluminum does not rust....

boozshey - The hood pins look really good. Did you use anything to keep the holes in the hood from rusting (other than peanut butter
)?? I really want to put pins on my stang but the thought of drilling into the hood or rust down the line keeps me from doing it. Also do you have to worry about the paint cracking or chipping when you drilled or is this somthing you avoid by drilling from the bottom up??

Has anyone tried these? I picked them up. They are all aluminum and are slotted so the pin slides back to release so no cable is needed. I like them because you can't scratch the hood.
Let me know what you think.
Wanting to put them on this.
Thanks
John
