Stryker,
1 hole is right on top of the headlight and the pin is to long.. did you have to cut into the headlight. or you use the 2nd hole that is closes to the radiator

Thats where I have mine and you can see how they look from outside the hood. Sorry I didn't catch the hole in the other side, but you get the idea.

Just thought I'd give some heads up about an alternative to hood pins. These locks look less noticeable on a CFH.

they are called zeus clips. they are usually used on race cars. you just rivet everything into place. a friend of mine races modifieds so he has them all over his race car.

if you're trying to find them on the net they're actually Dzus clips (just pronounced zeus).

I don't think pro racers would use those to secure their hood if it wasn't strong enough to hold it down. but then again what they are securing isn't as heavy as a cf hood.

i wanted to put mine right above the headlights, but the posts wouldn't fit w/ the stanleys. i used the holes just to the outside of the headlights.
