Ok, I am thinking of buying the TruFiber A72KR ram air hood for my mustang, but the question is I dont know what color to go with, my car is Oxford white, and I want it to stand out in a crowd with black and white accent.
Here is the hood


Should I go solid black like this


or use black stripes with a white hood like this


The build list in my sig has pics of my car if that helps.

As aggressive as that hood is, you'll be just fine going with all white. It will attract attention by itself. I have (2) friends with the Cervini's Stalker hood...one is Black and the other is Satin Silver...they both look killer painted the same color as the car.

If you want a black accent, a couple of suggestions:



I considered this as well (had it photoshopped to compare before I went with the above)

Yea, that one looks nice on your red stang! I have also considered the TruCarbon version, even though it is literally twice as expensive. And your right, solid white with the black vents probably will look mean if I went with the fiberglass one. Do you think it would be worth the extra cost for the carbon fiber version?

Hey did you get the hood yet, I will snap some good pictures for you tomorrow. I have the hood on my 2013 GT Performance White

Nah I havent got it yet, prob going to wait for tax time, and yea I would love to see some good pics of it!

Thanks, sorry I didn't respond earlier, not sure how I missed your comment.

Are you asking about carbon fiber vents? Or the carbon fiber hood? Either way, I don't think it is worth the extra expense (I have the carbon fiber vents, but that was because the regular ones were on back order and they gave me a deal to go with the carbon fiber - my paint guy liked the carbon fiber with the grey wheels so decided not to paint them black like we were going to do originally). With the hood that you are looking at I think that the photoshop I posted would look great. We went back and forth on which way to go and then I decided on the first picture. Sometimes I wish I had gone the other way - and if I ever do the ghost flames then will have the hood treatment done the second way.

I too, like the other way better but painted not vinyl.
The SS stripping would look great as well on the car...

Hey Guys, It snowed today so my Mustang is covered in Snow and dirty! It's to cold to get it washed but i will post up some dirty pics of it. Give me some time and they will be up by the end of the day. On a side note the Hood is still Unpainted how it comes from Trufiber. Also Fitment was great, you will have to move the hood latch up on the vehicle. Hood Vents will have to be 3m taped or adhesive on. And the hood doesn't come with spots for the windshield wiper sprayers.

can't wait to see it painted, a really bad *** looking hood, anyway I would paint it the same color as your car
