Default Hood lock options?

I searched but couldn't find anything...what are my options for securing my hood? I would like to keep people from easily opening my hood. Thanks!

i have the sparco hood pins, had to hack part of the bottom of my hood off around where the screws attach them in order to secure the back, but they work decently well. i'd probably choose the aerocatch if i did it again, they just look a bit better aesthetically and are probably more secure. i'll post some pics of mine later when i get home if i can remember.

i had a CF hood* with aerocatch flush hood pins. one of them broke and the other started to get fucked up and it was only a few months old.

*before you start flaming, the hood came on a miata i bought. i quickly sold the hood and replaced with an oem hood.
