Hoods do not come pre-painted as they need to be pre-fit to your car then painted.

Also if they were painted there would be a really good chance it would get scratched in shippping on truck freight


On another note, If we make that black hood would anyone buy it ?

We are thinking of developing a similar hood with larger openings and wider, taller runners.
I would certainly be considering a hood such as the one described.... Similar hood, larger openings and wider / taller runners...

I like the black Shelby style hood too... All I think it needs is the center intake hole like the '69 hood had. Too bad there is not more info on it.

I talked to Fang Performance (they have a NICE Shaker setup) and they are also developing a hood similar to the black one. They are also working on some fenders that are similar to the '69 Shelby.



Fangperformance.com - talk to Terry about what they have in the works...

Does Fang actually have the shaker for sale? I looked at their website and didn't see it. The make reference to Pro Finish Hoods, so I checked there too. Still didn't see anything. I would love to find an alternative to the as-yet unavailable CDC scoop... <sigh>

Yes, they are available. 2 week delivery I think. It comes with the special hood that has the nose of the '69 / '70 Mustang.

Cost is $1200, unpainted (hood and shaker) plus shipping. The Fang unit sits 4" closer to the windshield. They said that location looks better than the CDC unit - I agree. The hood locks are an additional cost ($200 maybe?)

Call the number on the website and ask for Terry.

That doesn't look like the Saleen SC will be able to go there in conjunction with the unit in the pics.

A couple months ago, 05_Bullitt said he was going to partner with someone and start selling them. Then, he put on a Procharger, and we haven't heard from him since. He hasn't posted at all in about 6 weeks. I hope he's OK.

In one of your post i saw where you said y`all were making a Hood simalar to the KingCobra that 05_Bullit posted! If I read that correctly how is that coming & what is the price on it?! I would love to have the exact Hood 05_Bullit posted or 1 just like it with the center vent like the 69 Shelby GT500!
Any info on a hood like that would be greatly appreciated!
