Would you prefer the rocker panels on this?

I think the new street scene kit looks really badass! I would totally get it if I had a 10-11

Thanks. $1600 for a hood (unpainted) is crazy imo

I generally hate them. Unless it's an Eleanor, Roush, Saleen or GT500, if you want to call them "body kits"

Just wanted to chime in. The best looking body components out there for the new mustangs is going to be the roush, gt500 and saleen parts. Especially if your looking for that clean look. I never like the body racer kit. On my 2010 mustang i did a roush front and side. With a gt500 rear and spoiler. I get compliments on my car everywhere i go.
Heres a couple pics if that helps with your decision.

I noticed the site also has a carbon fibre version of the hood for $1000 which is still $600 cheaper than Saleen's.
