Should I?


I was thinking.. Instead of buying the V6 hood, Maybe buying something to add a bit of style if I can find one in my 150$ "Junk yards only." Price range..

I'm new to the mustang world, Would I be Shunned for this sort of.. Borderline Ricer-ness?

could be the shitty wheel lol...who knows how the original owner put it on...so install might be fubar

btw if you do find a cowl for a decent price then go that route and you'll be a happy camper...if you can't the oe hood looks fine

If anything, usually steering feels less sensitive if your used to driving a FWD car.

As long as your steering wheel is working properly and you have the right amount of power steering fluid, its probably no big deal.

If it's really that extreme, consider having the alignment checked.

The sensitivity is probably from that aftermarket steering wheel you have.
