Thats tough, I think they both look good personally.

But I'd have to go with the Cobra hood also... Too much going on with the saleen for me.

^wow! I thought I would get more SALEEN answers...

why is that?
Cobra is more functional or just you like the looks better?


I just dont want it to look like im trying to CLONE a COBRA, ya know?
like a lot of people do, with the snake and hood and wing etc...

Then leave it stock. Either way you are cloning something else. Or go with a hood that doesn't pertain to another mustang car.

^I can't.
I am forced to replace HOOD and FASCIA...

trust me its not by CHOICE, id MUCH rather keep stock exterior and put money in PERFORMANCE.

but I am forced due to an accident that just Cracked the fascia and hood enough to be replaced =(


and see im already going with the 03-04 Cobra Fascia...
so I thought the fascia AND THE HOOD... might be to much like a CLONE.

why I wanted opinions... y
