But instead of hooking the outside hood handles I think you could hang/dangle a couple of bungee cords on the inner side panel latch rod guide brackets (2 on each hood side panel, 1 front and 1 rear) on the inside of the side panels when closing the hood. Then crawl underneath and a hook the other ends of the bungees to the frame to hold them down during transport. This would completely eliminate any possible wear on the exterior paint surfaces and should still be secure enough to safely transport your truck.
Let us know how things work out.
