Hood Pin Poll

Hood Pin Poll
I'm about to put a fiberglass hood on my car, and I think I need hood pins. The left rear corner of the hood won't sit flush, and both corners vibrate at high speed (normal for composite hoods). I use the car as a weekend driver and for track days.
There are a lot of different hood pins available. Which style do you like best? Please explain if your selection is based on looks, performance, past experience, etc.

biggest problem with the normal ones is that there is no place to put the hood pins when you open the hood!
something captive is good just for that reason

I personally like the earo ones also, i have seen them on the track on some cars and look good. The other ones look a bit more a jimmy fix.
I would personally get the locking aero ones as you know there will probably be some little ***** thats going to pull your pins out or something stupid.
