My hood shakes while driving on the highway, is this normal? Anyone else has seen this happen? It shakes towards the bak part close to the windshield.

From what I read in other threads its normal but if it really bothers you check the bolts to the hood and latch to make sure they're secured

Ya know, i noticed it on the old celica but with my new Suby(Legacy GT) i dont see it. The Subaru has a larger scoop but i guess the hood on the Celica was weaker.

yup happens to me too. the rear center of the hood i think isnt supported underside enough and does that :)

Been wondering about the same thing lately. Mine tends to shake more at idle and at stoplights though

When I had my raised hood scoop it was shaking pretty noticeably, but it wasn't a problem.

mine shakes like you are describing. You can always go with hoodpins if its scaring you.

Is this oem hood or cf version?

Yup, even though you know the hood is secured, still gets you to think the "what if" scenarios when it shakes like that!

someone should invent a way to secure the hood other than hood pins.

Hood latch? I think they already have.
