FiberGlass hood vs Hood Pins/Bonnet Pins
Hey guys I have a 2013 Mustang GT with a Fiberglass hood. I would like to install some pins for added security. I would like Bonnet Pins because I like the flush appearance or would a Hood pin with a rubber gourmet for the fiberglass be better. I guess this is the one I am looking into.
Because the car sees 130+ mph every day.

Well, with fiberglass you don't have to worry about corrosion so that concern is out of the picture!
I wanted to put the flush pins on my hood, but no body shop was willing to cut the hood for the flush mount Aerocatch pins. So I ended up with the more traditional flat pins. The metal "disc" rather than the rubber grommet seems to work fine.
