Is this a good price for a hood scoop?
I have been looking for a GT hood scoop for my 2000 Amazon Green GT that is already painted, but it has been hard to find as my color is kinda rare. I found this one on ebay but it seems a little high to me. Let me know what you guys think. Oh and does it look like my color to you guys? I am sure it is.

for being already painted that doesnt seem to bad at all. Americanmuscle has unpainted hood scoops for $110 free shipping... Im not sure how much it would cost to get one painted. I have no clue when it comes to most body work type stuff. But depending on how much shipping is on the ebay hood scoop. It might be cheaper to go with the new one off americanmuscle and just have a body shop paint it. That might cost what maybe $50? i dont know, maybe it would be alot more.

That's a pretty good price for a color as rare as yours. I paid 75 for my scoop that came in black gelcoat. And I had to paint it. I'd imagine even buying one for 75, it'd cost around 100 for paint, maybe a lil less.

It is an or best offer auction I am going to see if he will take $100.00 for it as he is a little high on the shipping, $25.00. Paying full price though would almost be worth it just to make my GT not look like a V6 anymore and I think the hood scoop makes our cars look bad@$$ even though it is non functional.

I am always weary of people who make it a point to say that the item is "as pictures and as is". Plus you can't really see the condition of it from those pictures. There seems to be a scuff of some sort in that third picture.

budders, your color is the same as my car Amazon green. Ford only made 3 greens for mustangs amazon green, electric green and the green that they used on the bullitt mustang. Some people call our green tropical green but it is really amazon green, when you take pictures of amazon green it can somtimes look almost blue and like in my picture look really green almost close to electric green. you can decode your color with your vin
