Default hood shake

Anybody here get a good amount of hood shake on their disco at 60+ MPH? My hood shimmies like crazy and looks like it wants to lift up when I'm on the highway, especially when i get a good crosswind. Any solution for this?

Are you missing the hood gaskets? They go on the pitch weld on top of the fenders full length

Guess its a d2 thing most I see have em, either way they fit and make the hood tight, guess they also force rain to runoff instead of overflowing the fenders and going into engine bay?
