Default Show off your Hood!!

Post your hoods!!Im looking to get a new hood soon because my stocker barely clears my air cleaner so I would like to get a taller hood and possibly run a carb spacer. I really like the design of this hood, but the only one for a mustang, that I can find, comes in carbon fiber[:'(].

Has anyone seen this style in a non-carbon finish? If you would also post pics of your hoods to give me some ideas Id really appreciate it. Heres a pic of my car if you have any suggestions let me know. Thanks

I think a regular 3" or 4" cowl would look sick on your car.

why yes i did spray myself with some help of my father in law,did it right there in the garage with a couple of fans and all in all 170 bucks in the whole paint job , and this is after the first session of wet sanding and buffing still gonna do a little more buffing, i am very happy on the finish and earl scheib or macco aint got **** on us........

i will be posting a thread soon with my before and after pics of my first painting a car job that turned out pretty good...
