Arrow Need help choosing Hood Pins!

The car goes to dyno on Dec 13 so i decided to go ahead and mount the 01 cobra bumper and steeda hood. Long story short, i forgot the hood needed hood pins or a latch welded on. i opt for the pins. heres the two styles im going with. The Ford Racing from AM or the Daystar pins. the daystars come with a polyurathane gromet to prevent the fiberglass from cracking and will eliminate rattling. the ford racing is proven to be really good. tell me what you think!

I had the FRPP kit on my old hood and it did just fine. I like the other kit you posted. the other kit I always liked was the one from Shelby

I like that Ford Racing Kit on my '95 GT. No rattles, vibrations or any issues what so ever. As long as it's installed properly, the FRPP hood pins are great!
