Cyber-

I don't think you have to worry about it flying up with those hood pins on, although having a fiberglass hood does make it like a kite when the air hits it. I am using the hood lock that comes with a key not the traditional hod pin. After my insident I hooked a small chain to the hood and frame with a latch so it will not happen again. I don't trust the locking hood locks like I do the hairpin type hood pins.
