Hood blanket/ground strap Q??

It's for the radio actually. Put it on AM and you'll see

I am putting my hood blanket back on tomorrow. I will post pictures tomorrow to show the reason as to this. I guess the Texas sun and the engine heat aren't mixing too well. Where the push-pins are, the paint is beginning to bubble up. I will post pictures of this tomorrow to show what I mean.

Are the 94-98 hoods metal? Mine is fiberglass, and I've had the blanket off for years, even with the hot ass eaton I've had no problems with the paint.

It's fiberglass and I have always heard that it never caused problems so I yanked mine off aswell. I noticed a few days ago at night, that when the car had cooled off and dew was on the car, I could see the circle areas where the push pins hold the liner in and noticed they had bumps on them. I drive my car as a daily so it sees quite a few miles and heat, so maybe that is the difference between me and the others haha. I will include a picture to show what I mean.

I will have to include pictures from later tonight. It's entirely too bright out to get a decent picture with my camera but if you look about 2 inches to the right of my fingers, you'll see the first area, then to its right is another. The pictures I take later on will show them better.
