I don't seem to have a problem at high speeds. I did bought a set of hood pins but haven't put them on yet. Is not like I go 120mph all the time. But if it bothers you just get some hood pins.

Actually, if your hood is rattling, that means that you do not have it adjusted properly. If you adjust the rubber stops correctly, you should never have any rattle. The term "Bolt On" doesn't mean no adjustment is necessary.

it is recomended that you get hood pins with fiberglass hoods. they are weaker than aluminum hoods. the force of the wind can tear the fiberglass at the center bolt sight. I had mine on for about a month without pins ( while I was waiting for them to get shipped). in that time I did not have any shaking or problems, but I kept it under 90mph. If you don't like hood pins try without. if you have problems put them on- if its not too late.
