I want a new hood...

RE: I want a new hood...
To me, a nice lil cowl hood looks good on our model of mustangs. It is not posing by just getting a cowl hood. Thats contradicting cuz the Cobra R hood is raised as well. The gt hoods with the fake scoop look good, but I stilllike the look of an 03/04 cobra hood on the GT's... its very sexy.
Just go with what you like the best... if you eventually need more clearance under your hood... then your better off getting something now that will work for you later... just my $0.02.

Yeah I have the same problem... looks like it happens a lot lol. I got3 quotes to get my hood, bumper, and fenders painted andthey werebetween850-1000 dollars. They said they would blend it in with the back of the car to make it look good.

yeah it looks great with a pointless cowl hood and 1 headlight. cobraR ftw. im still a believer in if you use a cowl hood, it should be NEEDED for clearance or to keep the engine cooler ie F/I its like posing.. you have a hood that serves a purpose, but not for you
i actually just asked my body shop guy how much to paint a cowl hood. $150 because i pay him cash..lol otherwise 800 isnt bad for everything hood included.

why do you think i asked if he plants to do F/I, cause if he goes supercharger he will need clearance, im just saying if he doesnt go F/I there are better style hoods out there that look alot better than a cowel hood, such as the cobra hoods. and what parts has anyone installed on their car that came from a mach 1 or cobra? anything short of an engine is considered aftermarket.. even the mach 1 chin spoiler, its only called a mach 1 cause thats the model it came on. i guess since some of us have K&N were honda posers.

This is a bolt on n/a car...I don't think it looks stupid! I wouldn't pay $800 for paint, I was really thinking $300-400 or so, plus about the same or a little more for the hood. I'll probably just have to wait anyway though. []
