Thanks for not being offended by my comment, I should have made it more obvious I was just busting your ball a bit...

In all seriousness, I would feel a lot better having hood pins and there are several different styles, including low-profile ones. Check out the Moroso (?) low-profile pins and see if they're any better.

Oh.. Thats right!!

Cool.. definitely let me know.. which issue was it??
One of the guy here subscribe to that.. i need to get is also..

rynberg, Naw.. I wasn't offending.. you made a very valid point.. Scoot does take the nice curvature from the FD.. And I should of been more clear.. Sometimes I get on this thing late at night before falling asleep and i don't really know what I'm typing.

put on the pins so the hood doesn't fly off and kill you or people around you

I don't believe that's possible, being that you own an FD...

COME ON Phil!! You JUST finished up sayin that you're a good law abiding citizen of Alabama! lol. I'm sure you'll be testing it well within the confines of all state traffic laws, noise laws, speed laws, safety laws...etc. If so, that amounts to having a grannie take it for a spin lol.

Just admit it...you're gonna thrash the car tomarrow, flying by people doing 120 like it ain't no thing...and you're going to enjoy it

LOL!!! that is so like me.. I just hate slow *** people on the left lane.. or slow *** drivers in general (going below the speed limit).
I know one of these days, I'm going to get myself into into little trouble.. Like getting pissed because some one front of me going 10MPH below the speed limit and cutting them off, only to realize its a police officer. She pulled up next to me, hold up her badge and asked me to pull over.. But, only sane thing I could think of was to take off on this one way street on to the highway.. Got off at the first exit and took off!!! Phew, No ticket!! Luckily, I was in my Legend when i did that.. In my 7, no way!! i'm all about driving responsibly!
