Son of a B!tch

[Jodaddy]

Some ass hole at work backed into my mustang and jacked up my hood. So looks like i gotta find the son of a b!tch and get their insurance info. Good news is since i work for a bank theres a million camera's everywhere so they'll find out who did it. But its lookin like i might need a new hood. Any suggestions? im choosing between

I like the first one, but go for a shaker

[kbldoc]

I am kinda partial to this one,

I've always liked the 3rd one.Hope you get it taken care of!

[04WhininCobra]

i would go with the second one. Good luck finding out who did it.

[02stangGT]

Go with the second looks so mean looking! sorry to hear about the car though

[1966PonyGirl]

I bet it was some broad driving a PT Cruiser, i totally love the second one. much more beefier looking.

[Jodaddy]

HAHA! They caught the stupid bitch that hit my car! Get shit fixed soon! get their insurance info on monday! o yeah!!!!!!! SCORE!:twothumbsup:

[BOOMSHAKALAKA]

Hit and run action? I love the second one. Looks mean!

[Mr. Austin]

sorry to hear about your hood br carefull when you select your hood you get what you

bill or john at stage3motorsports they can steer you in the right direction I like #2
Good luck

I would just get a stock hood without all that stuff on it - not like it serves any purpose other than cosmetics. This is why my Fox has engine plates, to stuff the "5.0" under the stock hood and keep the plain jane look.

The top one and 3rd one are both functional hoods,just depends on what you want out of it.
The top one is Ram Air, have to purchase the Kit if you want it fully functional,
3586
The 3rd in a heat extractor style hood- supposed to keep engine bay cooler.

You should buy it through stage3 so you can look at it before you purchase to make sure there are no flaws.
They usually cary more then one.:twothumbsup:

[Mr. Austin]

qith 4:10's helping put the power to the floor the second would be sweet to hep cool during summer. BUT if you get the ram air kit and maake it functional....That would be my first choice. if your going to redo the hood then i would go all out and get the ram air. do it once do it right.

I'm with trucker and White90GT on a couple of points.

You definitely get what you pay for, so do some shopping to get informed on the particular hood you pick before you lay down the cash for it. Same goes for whoever paints it - there are good body/paint folks and there are many more bad ones.

As for the style vote, I've always liked the factory aluminum piece without any of the scoops and such attached to it like some afterthought. If I had to choose from the ones you listed though I would go for the cowl induction style like the second one. It doesn't look like you are trying to make a clone of anything and it looks pretty intimidating to boot.

Good luck with whichever choice you make!

I say get whatever makes YOU happy and to heck with what everyone else thinks.
Just get one that won't require a lot of paint prep. You may pay more for the hood, but it will be less than what the painter will charge for getting a crappy hood to look good.

agreed with wild bill. and honestly, i think all three are cool in thier own way. though obviously the heat extractor catchs my eye the most. :D
