Hood Question


Thinking of getting a cowl for the stang. Does anyone have a functional cowl.
i want something to help get some of the heat out of the engine bay and also do you drive it in the rain.

Exactly what Ryan just said, The only hoods I have ever had a problem with was the Mach1 hoods and cobra r svo hoods. and that was because when water got in the vents it went right on my dizzy and fuck that! get a 2.5 /3 " cowl hood and call it a day. Dont go too big if you don't need it!! I roll with 5.5 " + and I love it, but I think on some cars it looks assarific. Just my .02

I've got 3" on mine.. to me its the perfect size.. it sticks out enough to see it.. it looks bad ass.. and its not as sight restricting and terrifying as the 5" haha.
