If so, do you have any issues? Any rubbing of the hood-liner or clearance problems? Thanks!!!

I have them on my Roush 427. Although pricey they are the best looking ones on the market. I got the ones with the 4.6 in the center. Painted my valve covers ford blue so I also painted the 4.6 blue to match. No problems with the hood. They really pop with the blue lettering on the white cover.

I have them, they fit great and look very nice. I have a little spot on the driver's side that rubs but it's on an aftermarket hood. I wouldn't worry about that unless you happen to also have the Cervini C-series hood. I haven't heard of any problems with stock hoods. When they first made those covers, they didn't have those indentations on the side. I think they looked a little better but they were rubbing a little on the stock hood so they purposefully redisigned them. -Joe

Any of you guys that have the covers think they would fit over the tokico struts? I like them but wondering if there is enough room on the inner side to allow for the tokico's? How lifted are they from the top of the strut tower or do they fit flush?

FordFanBoy - just went out in the garage and measured mine - there is1 3/4 inch clearance above the strut tower. Hope that helps. And off topic - I personally think your car is the sweetest looking one on this forum. Those pics you posted last week (or maybe it was two weeks ago) were amazing.
