Default installed hood pins

I think this location turned out better than mounting them to the radiator support. what do you think?

Without the rubber stoppers does it move around more at higher speeds?

I was thinking the same thing Jeff. If you have enough thread on the pin you could rig up a stopper on the pin to keep the hood from moving. It would also keep your hood from going too far down when you close it.
