Default hood scoops and side vents needed on 05-07 V8 GT mustangs?

I like the look of the 05- 07 GTmustang but think it needs the BIG hood scoop and side vents right after the doors like the 01-04 V8 GTmustangs what do you guys thik I think the BIG hood scoop and side ventsmake it look MUCH meaner,muscular and faster! What do you guys think? I also know a hood scoop can be added on the 07 GT but it looks to DAM SMALL!

I agree with you that the hood does need a scoop. Some people dont like it but I do. I dont really have a opinion on the side scoops. Dont like them or hate them. On the previous body style stang they looked good but I dont know how they look on this body style.

I like the hood scoop a lot. I also really like the side scoops and may eventually have to pick some up.

Everyone has a different opinion however ... that's why we each have our own car

I prefer them myself, still lookin for a good 68' style hood to complete the look.

A hood scoop is mandatory. Side brake scoops are optional.

So far I like the hoods clean sweepingshape. I feel the hood scoop disruptsthat curve of the hood. And if you have stripes it interupts the lines of the stripes too much IMO.

I like Fords side scoops and with a contrating color and the black inserts it really stands out.
