Default CDC STICK ON HOOD PINS

HAS ANYONE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH THE CDC STICK ON HOOD PINS? I BOUGHT THEM A WHILE AGO AND NEVER STUCK THEM ON. I HAVE NOW DECIDED I LIKE THE LOOK. HAS ANYONE HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THEM OR ANY PROBLEMS WITH INSTALLATION?

I just made a post on them. I hate to be a newcomer giving advice but search before posting. Also typing in caps is universally considered to be rude.

These would be the only ones I'd get. real hood pins are a pain in the *** to line up and the hood will never close right

if the instructions don't tell you, the pins should be lined up parallel to the hood sides. this is so both pins (if were working pins) can be removed simultaneously and cannot be removed by something dragging over the hood.

Yes. They are just there to look good, and look good they do!

I thought about this same question today when I saw a new Shelby GT-H. I looked at the hood and saw that on the driver's side the connector (wire covered with plastic) had scratched the black paint, leaving a noticeable scratch. I assume it's from poor treatment, as even the GT-H is gonna be treated like any other rental, especially by the guy who washes them at the airport!
It also could have been just the plastic wearing onto the black paint. I didn't touch it.
I'd say go for it and then we'll know!
