hood pins

any of you guys have hood pins on our cars? For a variety of reasons im thinking of removing the stock hood latch so i would have to replace it with pins obvously. Think they would probably look amazing just dont think ive ever seen em on our cars.

I have them but I kept my original latch assembly on my hood. The only reason that I'm using them is becuase I have a fiberglass hood and it wobbles too much over the lights.

I have some pics if you need them. Here's one from the outside just to get an idea of what they look like.

those look really cool. Yeah i want to get rid of the latch because im going to at least try to fab up a custom air box for my car and i need to do some cutting on the underside of the hood to do what i want. Anyways ill have pics as the winter goes on at the very least the pins look cool!
