i have a mach 1 without the cut outs cut out. i think it looks good but it needs to have the holes cut in it. i also like the SVO hood on foxes. ..but you can never go wrong with a simple 2 inch cowl hood. they always look good.


Hey steeda, is that an aftermarket front bumper on your buddys car?

Thanks for all the pics and suggestions guys.. i like the cobra R and Pro50Sc car looks amazing with it. I kinda want the Cobra R SVO and i just hope it looks as bad *** with the scoop.

Either "jonnyslick" (or "50mikey") heat extractor or the Mach 1 / Stormin Norman. Personally, I like the heat extractor a little better just because there are fewer out there.

I really like the heat extractor 03/04 CObra hood for the foxes. I have a Kirkan hood, which is kinda a combination of the Cobra R and a standard 3" cowl hood. I actually like it a little better than the Cobra R hood because it flows with the plastic cowl panel.

I highly recommend you look at the hoods avaliable at Carbonware.com

The fit, finish and quality is amazing. It bolts to the stock hinges, and uses the stock latch system for a perfect OEM feel. Not only does it fit great, but the quality of the fiberglass is A+. You will save money on a paint job because the hood doesn't require very much prep work. Also, the customer service at carbonware is the best I have ever recieved from a car part company. They are great guys.

I am getting my 3" Cowl hood from carbonware painted right now, and I can't wait.

Give Don a call, tell him Jon sent you

626-820-1334 or visit CARBONWARE.COM

Support our sponsor, as well as recieve an excellent hood.

Does that place make body kits as well? All I can find on their site is hoods. I want to do a cobra R kit on my '95 and i'm looking for a high quality one.

Was on there when I got the car. I have only seen 2 other cars with the same hood.

Check abcexclusive.com

I think they make something similar to 4fit's... I like the heat extractor--it's not too much, but just enough not to be a sleeper
