High speed hood flex

High speed hood flex
I have noticed on my FD that at speed of ~120+, my hood seems to be flexing, noticable mostly in the corners by the headlights. Its not by much, but its noticable enough for me to see it while trying to concentrate on driving that fast. Ive owned numerous FCs with aluminum hoods and never had (or noticed) this issue, but this is my 1st FD, I was wondering if this is normal?

i noticed that my hood moves around a bit at 100plus..... but after numerous 120+ pulls over a span of 2years... nothing has happened so i just focus on the road

I won't let go
It seems to be normal but some don't see it. I put pins in just for peace of mind.
The hood is strong enough that you won't cause any damage and I haven't heard of anyone losing a hood because of it.
