Hey guys.

My '93 Stang has a BOSS, Inc. Cyber Stallion fiberglass hood. I've got it latching to the factory latch right now. I'd like to get a set of hood pins to be 100% sure my hood will never fly off at the track or something. What's a recommended set of hood pins? How about these?

Thanks

Those are good pins, I've used them before. The stainless is nice, it won't rust like chrome.

Think they would look too big on my Cobra R Cervini Hood? I dont want them to overwelm the hood or make it look rice!! Just want to make sure I dont go hoodless!!

I'm not really sure what you're comparing too -- they're normal sized. I can't really say I've seen different sized pins.

I have seen cheap ones (that is why I didnt buy them) that looked recessed and did not have huge hood pins in fact some had key locks. I just dont want these huge pins that everyone sees first before they notice my Cobra R hood!!

The hood is misaligned.. I'm getting that fixed in the spring.
