Default Name that Hood

Hi, I'm looking to change my stock '07 GT hood and came across this one while browsing the internet. From the angle given, it looks like somethingI would like to have, but I want to see more shots of it and possibly some live video. If anyonecan name this hood or has more pics of it, it would be greatly appreciated.

That is the GT500 KR hood.

Since it's on a GT, and not on a KR, it's certainly NOT the GT500KR hood. It is, however, most likely the TruFiber Venom hood, which is a pretty good looking knockoff of the GT500KR, on the outside anyway.

Except that the GT500KR hood is made of CarbonFiber, has recessed spots for the twist lock pins, and is made available only through Shelby American ON the GT500KR, and is not available in any way to the public at large.

The Hood the OP posted is mounted on a Mustang GT. Therefor it cannot possibly be the GT500KR hood. That said, the only hood I know of that emulates the GT500KR hood is the one I posted, with information about said hood, so that the OP might get the information he desires.

Oh christ, there's a 99% chance he wanted to know what the style of the hood was, not where he could get an OEM one made of the same material...
