Hood pins!!

Just like the title states.....Hood pins.
Got the Ford Racing hood pin kit.
Not what i wanted to do, but i took the hint since three guys locally lost their cowl hoods into their windshields in the last few months.
I don't mind them, but i've always like the clean look with the hood. Steeda does make a good quality hood with an excellent hood latch, reason why i never put them on in the first place, buuuuut safety first since i like to run the 1/4 mile, or take a cruise down the highway now, and then.
These are not the best pics, but you get the idea. I'll try to get better shots soon.
Took these tonight after giving the GT a wax down.

I am with you on the clean thing but with your color it looks fine.

You are right, the silver helps it blend in, doesn't really pop out, reason i guess i don't mind it. LOL!

I need to tint out all the lights. Not sure how dark to go as I do not drive it after dark often so may 5% (limo) like the windows

Sharp addition dude, you're right, with the silver they are a little more subtle looking. Nice. Snakebite, your car gets any blacker and we'll have to get you a cape and start calling you The Dark Knight!!!
