???

I think the hood has a clean look to it and it throws off the whole look of the hood with the pins.

The hood already has some depth and style to it. On the '05+ the hoods are really basic, so pins really do help a lot on them. I say 99-04 is a no, 05+ yes.

Agreed. I think they look ok on the 05+ but dont really like them on the 94-04 body styles.
