Default Where to find 96 Cobra hood scoops?

One of the thing I would have liked to do for my 96 cobra is to add a hood scoop, similar to that one: http://www.americanmuscle.com/xenon-hoodscoop-9498.html
But that one wouldnt fit my stock hood, so I am wondering where I could find something similar. I tried looking on the net but couldnt find anything

This is my hood btw:

Please don't ruin that beautiful hood with something that ugly. The 96/98 Cobra hood is one of the sexiest stock hoods.
But it is your car and if you want that ugly fake thing on your car sell the Cobra hood by a GT hood and put that fake scoop on it

^This^ The 96-98 Cobra hood is a beauty of it own with what appears to be what I call eyes or nostrols of a snake.

Please dont ruin it with a fake scoop.Someone who owns the same hood as you I couldnt put a GT scoop on it.

BTW your Cobra looks great as is

I could not agree with you guys more.The stock cobra hood is very sharp.That's why so many v6 and GT owners put them on.Dude your black cobra looks great just the way it is.

Heh, thanks for the comments. I wasn't sure what it would look like with a hood scoop on to be honest, I was just wondering what type of hood scoops were available and what they would look like on it, so I was on the fence on getting one or not but after seeing the comments above, I guess I made up my mind and will leave it as is (although racing stripes are still an option ).

I agree; don't ruin the hood with a scoop... But, I do like your wheels and your car looks great as is. What wheels are those? They look like Cobra Rs with rivets and the centers in anthracite... they'd look great on my 97 Cobra I think...

Mine were on the car when I bought it but you can get them from a company called OE Wheel.Mine are 17's but I'm not sure if they make them in 18's.

Yeah they are Cobra R as jeh4269 said and 17" but I bought the car like that, so I am not sure where the previous owner bought them.
