Got them today. They look great! The chrome ones have started to peel and the copper is showing through. With the stainless pins that won't be an issue. Part # is 090-812 available at any industrial fastener supply house.

I made these for my car out of solid stainless steel for the same reason. I now decided that I am not gonna use them  as I am going with a solid steel with black oxide finish with black hood pins on a black car. The second picture is the bottom.

I want a couple of sets of solid stainless for our Challengers... would be sharp
