those are hood pins, they are meant for race cars that do not have a hood latch

if you get a carbon fiber hood you should add them my buddy had a cf hood that uses stock latches but the cf breaks easy so it flew off and smashed the hood

The main function of hood pins are to hold the hood from flying up in case the latch breaks loose. They are usually found on older cars and added today mainly for looks... but they have nothing to do with rice cars if they add them or not.
This is the Shelby GT-H straight from Ford

Yea I don't see them as rice at all. I see it as an old school look. Really no point in my opinion except to draw you away from amaking your car go faster by spending money in places that aren't needed!LOL Just make them go fast, no make them look fast lol
