yeah, you dont see them in that location because you would most likely have to drill holes in your radiator support, which is tougher then fiberglass and CF.
i understand your reasons for not doing it, just keep an eye on it on the highway, i used to look at mine every second when i first got it, drove 2 weeks without the latches, IT DROVE ME NUTS!!!!! to see this hood vibrate doing 70mph, lol
i looked pretty crazy driving, i was litterally on the steering wheel looking at it, lol

I see the same vibrations with my MotorFX hood and you've just convinced me on hood pins. I don't have any qualms with drilling a couple holes in it. My Kami hood on the other hand is going to remain hole-less and I'll just keep my fingers crossed. It doesn't vibrate at speed and it's too purdy to drill.

also the kami hood is vented, im no rocket scientist, but something tells me the air pressure wont push up on the hood, instead it would exit the reverse cowl!
something to think about, lol
