Default I want a new hood...

I just washed my car, and like always it reminded me of all the chips that are there. I would love to have a 2-3 inch cowl...how much would I expect to pay for getting the hood painted?

I'd have to save up for a bit[&o]

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. []

You too? Ford paint quality for the MFL! BAH that pisses me off so bad. The rest of the car is perfect but it looks like someone shook a pepper shaker over the hood lip area. I don't know if I could get away from the cool looks of a GT hood, maybe the Cobra hood could replace it, but no thanks on the Chevrolet Cowl look [:'(]

I just really don't like the Cobra R hoods...the 95's yes, the 00's, not so much...

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
