Yes it is, as are the rear pedestal wing and the wheels (the inner part)
I was contemplating a shaker hood setup to give it the whole retro/mod Mach 1 feel, but it would be a waste of $$$ once i S/C it...so the hood scoop serves the purpose and holds to my vision =)

Took some pics yesterday. Added the Chrome Black Bullitt Rims about a week ago. Currently have the 5.0 Engine cover at the paint shop getting painted Silver and Black. And this week I plan on painting the caliphers black.







As for the next major upgrade, I'm doing a little research on Lower Kits so that I can get a better understanding of what items I need and what purpose each part serves. Right now I'm looking at the Steeda, Eibach, and Ford Racing Lowering kits.
