Default Stock GT hood scoop

I want to put hood pins on my car but decided they dont look "all that" just on their own.
When i see people with the GT hood scoop and pins they look way sick!!!

Where can i pick up a GT hood scoop?
How much would it cost me?

Thanks in advanced guys!!

pins don't look bad on a stock hood without the scoop IMO... please don't get a fake scoop...

Just do a google search for mustang OEM hood scoop. Here's one that I found, but I don't know if its a good price or not.

yah, if you car didnt come with it then i say stay away from the fake scoop. it doesnt look bad with a stock hood with pins.

first of all, its your car so if you want a scoop, whether its just for appearance (so what if it doesnt function, it still looks much better than nothing) or if it is for funtionality, then get one. i think it will look good either way.

i got the Roush hood scoop and i think it makes the car look much better.

so i say go for both the pins and the scoop (either stock gt or roush)

deff. go with scoop and the pins, the shaker hood in my opinion isnt worth it, it's mainly just for apperience also it really doesnt improve much HP.

sure lethal. here they are :




i paid about $100 for my roush hood scoop and then a total of $175 to get it + the front bumper painted. (the guy basicly threw in the scoop for free)

i wouldnt mind the shaker either, but it is $800!

Hows it held down? Did you bolt it on or is it 3M tape?

I bolted it on with the 6 bolts that it came with. the pictures dont do it justice either.
