that hood latch looks questionable. you will definitely need to install hoodpins

Hood pins do serve a purpose as you have stated but keep in mind that a well manufactured hood with reinforced hood latch( steel rivets with back plate) does not require you to install hood pins especial if the hood is vented.

Unless you are looking for the C/F look of this OEM hood, i see no benefit given that the OEM hood is already made of light weight aluminum.
