I was all set to order a set of Drake hold downs. Now I gotta wait for the reviews on these before I make a decision.

They are out, I got mine last week and love them. Relatively easy to install, look awesome and lock the hood down tight. No more ugly faded out black plastic!

Looks good. Do they help with hood flutter at all?

Yeah, no flutter at highway speed and they can be adjusted so that they are very snug compared with stock.
