Cobra R hood vs. 2.5 inch cowl

Are they basically the exact same hood? Pro's and cons? Any insight? 99-04 stang.

Thanks.

The Cobra R has heat vents on top but other wise i would think so. Personally I have the Cobra R SVO hood and get compliments all the time I think it looks real aggressive.

The Cobra R in my opinion looks much better as the rise is subtle!

I say the Cobra hood, but then again I am a little biased.

I am torn between those same 2 hoods. I cant decide which I want more....I think the actual Cobra R hood looks out right badass though.....and I never see it.

Cobra R just because when I think cowl I think "cow", and cows are fat and stupid.

But really, I like the cobra R hood alot. It looks really nice on my buddies car.

I don't know if you would want a functional one since on mine when it rains water pools where the "vents" are. I would think that amount of water getting into the engine bay would be bad.
