Default Alternative to Hood Pins?

Spike, I'm not sure if this is in the right section...

On the way home from the Orlando meet this weekend, I realized that my hood was 'fluttering' at speeds of 80mph and over. I know my hood won't come up, but I would still like to have added stability. I could get hood pins, but I hate them. I don't want to go that route.

Is there something else I could get to make my hood more stable that isn't as noticable as the pins are? Maybe something that just fits underneath the hood?

Edit: My hood is stock and I don't want a new one.

Might want to try adjusting the hood latch on the core support down and the rubber stoppers on the hood.

I beleive you can screw up the stops so they hold the hood tighter.
