Default Hood Scoop

Im looking into getting a hood scoop for my car. I am wondering which scoop would look better the
stock GT scoop

or
the xenon scoop

Get the stock. That other one looks gay. Don't pay $200 for a stock scoop though. Find a used one at a junk yard or on ebay for less than half the price and spend the rest of the money to have it painted.

I got an entire gt hood for 100 bucks, 200 for just the scoop is ridiculous

the 99-00 saleen s281 wing
http://www.stage3motorsports.com/pro..._Shipping.html
the saleen side skirts
http://www.stage3motorsports.com/pro..._Shipping.html
or
cobra/bullit side skirts and
http://www.mustangsunlimited.com/ite...s&CatKey=74-01
how would this look when combined with my 01 cobra front?

Stock GT looks alot better. Find a used GT hood. I see them all the time on Craigslist for $50-100

I'd go with the wing and get a cowl hood, but that's just me, get the GT scoop if you can't afford a cowl...
