Help identifiying hoods on 1999
 

Pretty basic question, new to Mustangs
I just bought a 1999 sight unseen (OK, moment of weakness) and will need a hood. The hood on it has a scoop.

Question is this - I'm assuming its a basic coupe, nothing special but the hood has me wondering if all 1999 mustangs have the scoop or were some straight hoods - Just want to make sure I get the right style hood if I get one online and by the way, if by some strange chance, anyone has a hood... let me know

I can send an email with a picture - I just can;t figure out how to add it in

all 1999-2004 mustang gts have the hood scoop. 1999-2003 have the hood minus the scoop, the 2004 mustang v6s have a scoop that goes down in the front

Thanks - could I email you a picture and get you 2 cents on what this is? I couldn't figure out how to post it forum

If you have photobucket or tinypic, Upload your pic to that and copy and paste the direct link between:

Thanks everyone - sorry I'm such a computer idiot -
I managed to create an album with a pic in it - teh album name is called 1999 but I have no idea how to tell you to get there
Would love to see if you think this is a basic coupe or if the hood indicates something other as the post says - It be outstanding if it was a GT, but I;m not holding my breath

Im confused... are wanting to but a new hood? or are u just wondering what hoods on your car?
But the stock 99 gt hood just has a little indent thing no scoop.
But if u are buying a new hood u should look at the cowl hoods!

Wrong. 99-00 have the V6 no scoop hoods..

Ok, I just looked at your album and it looks like you got a v6 mustang, and man is the front end of that car F*cked up!

thought they all came wit it :confused:

I wish they did. Mine looks stupid.

ok, lets try this -

Thanks Mustang3GT06 - hopefully the photobucket thing works

So, yes I will be needing to buy a hood and I'm also trying to figure out what this is - a regular ole coupe or a GT

Hopefully the pic comes through

pop the hood and take a pic.

That is that regular 99 gt hood... many people preffer the 02-04 hood type though, looks alot better in my opinion

Actually that car looks to be a v6... did u think it was a gt?

I have no idea what model it is, I guessing its a std low end basic model - I bought it pretty much sight unseen "from a friend" and haven't picked it up yet.

I know I need a hood and was wondereing how many different hood types Ford put on them - sounds like this is a std issue V-6, coupe hood - not a GT hood?

Does it have two tailpipes?

It could be the standard hood for 99 v6 and gt's cuz they were the same... does it say gt anywhere on the car!?

wont be picking it up for about 3 weeks - was wanting to get a hood on the way
Believe me, when I get there I'll have no issues knowing exactly what it is.

Was just trying to get a hood on the way, but I'll just wait

Yea does it have a spoiler? does it say gt anywhere? does it have dual exhaust? does the engine seem pretty big? also does it have fog lights cause i think the all gt's had fog lights where yours seems to just have bars doing across... many ways to tell what kinda car u have besides the hood

Oh hahah forget all the stuff i just said then... the v6 and gt hoods will work the same so u will prob be best off just getting a hood off craigslist or j-yard or something!

what you just said was pretty confusing. but the 99 didnt have a scoop. even though you wrote

That car is a V6 bud...the badges that you can see on the sides barely are tri-bar with running horse. Thats the V6 badge. GT's would say GT in bold letters on the front fender, where that one is just a red, white, and blue tri-bar with the running horse...and it has sixxer wheels on it too.

I'm confused on why you have to put a hood from a 99 on your car? Here is all you need to know. You need a new hood all 99/04 hoods will bolt on to your car. Look thru pictures of different hoods for the 99/04 Mustang and pick the one you like and buy it bolt it on and enjoy

after painting it of course...cus that would just be ricer. But definitely do something about those headlights man.

I bought the hood scoop and put it on myself.. pretty simple and it looks way better! Also bought the side scoops too.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure '99 and '04 GT's don't say "GT" on the side

:-)

Having said that, car definitely appears to be a v6, and a v6 that has not been taken care of at all.

Well im pretty sure that they dont have the tri-bar running pony emblem either. lol so my bad on not calling out that 99's and 04's have the anniversary badging on them.

No fogs....v6.

We should date.

Seriously, :icon_naughty:

I dont even know what to say there...lol
