Default Pic After Hood Pins Installed

Here is a pic that I took off my cell of the hood pins that I installed. I took my car to 2 different ford dealerships to see if they can fix the hood shakes and well they can't. Mine weren't that bad & rearly did it but I'm a little **** about my car so I decided to get the pins instead. I'll eventually be getting a new hood but I'm in no rush and I'm pleased with the outcome

Stang Skeleton- Did it myself... remember when you saw it the first time and the pins were to short by about a 1/4". I ended up drilling 2 new holes but not the whole way threw - slid the nut accross from an existing hole and then threaded it from there to get the 1/4" that I needed. took about 30 minutes.

I like the pins. You might like my ram air setup, but you don't get to see it until next Sat
