Well your definitely entitled to your own OPINION but that doesn't mean we have to agree with it. I always say "each to there own"

nseoi
not to offend anyone but i think cowl induction hoods are the ugliest things to happen to mustangs (mostly foxes). they make the front end look retarded and takes away from what the car is supposed to look like, a sleek boxy 80's car. thats y i like my stock hood.
yea well you already did. See, cowl hoods are designed to extract heat from the hood while giving you as much hood clearance as possible for bigger engines etc. There much more for functionality than just for looks. I'd take a cowl hood over my factory hood any day for one it would actually come in white instead of blue and 2 They're lightweight and 3 it'll cover up my half piped cowl that got destroyed from the steel hood blowing up. Let me ask you nseoi what hood would u get? carbon fiber?

When I bought this Stang, the cowl panel was smashed like that, I just got other panel off of another car and welded it on mine. I got my hood from H O Fibertrends, It fit perfect with no mods...

lol cmon guys its not that serious. i know they are functional, lighter, and some people like them more than the original i just said that i like the stock look better. also, about the carbon fiber question if i was rich and i had a grey or black car i would. but since mine is white and i have a lot of other things to spend money on i wont.

the only thing is that u must admit, it makes the car look very front heavy visually.
