Roush hoodscoop and gt bumper

Spaunen · 07-14-2008, 12:44 PM

The only mods I want to put on my 07 stang is a hoodscoop, buy a gt bumper, front bumper with the grille and get dual exhaust (gt takeoff mufflers). I need to find somebody who can install the bumpers in my area. I'm buyin this package http://www.ninosport.com/GT-Exterior...;category=1503. Do I need anything else??

you can use 3M tape...works just as well in my opinion

for a roush hoodscoop? i wouldnt use just the tape alone. you have to drill. that 3m tape is not as permanent as some think, i managed to lose my 3d carbon chin spoiler on the expressway after the car bottomed out because the tape gave. i wouldnt risk having that scoop fly up and slam my windshield. just my opinion.

i think the gt hoodscoop uses just tape, but ive never seen how its installed. i used to have a roush scoop;the bolts were the main thing holding it on.

Nope. It's drilled in. Four screws and six or so clips hold it in place. No tape.

The Roush needs to be drilled in, too.

My dad hates the idea on drilling into the hood and cutting the bumper and thats why we want to buy a GT bumper. He said it will affect the warranty by drilling the hood. So do I HAVE to drill the hoodscoop or can I use use 3m tape.

not sure what warranty hes talking about....a hoodscoop wont void anything.

sorry man, but you have to drill. at least thats my vote.

and you can buy a takeoff gt bumper from ninsport.com or newtakeoff.com for pretty cheap.

Ok cool when I buy the bumper is it pre-painted?

Devil Wolf · 07-14-2008, 04:21 PM

yep, if its a take off. take offs are slightly used bumpers off demo/modded cars that have very very few miles on them.

None of that will affect your warranty. The Roush scoop is not functional.

Keep in mind though that the rear GT bumper has a lip at the bottom that goes all around the bumper. This will affect the visual representation of your car. So... basically if you want to have a proper and good look you'll need GT rocker panel covers and either a GT front bumper w/ grill or a painted chin spoiler.
