Hood choices... need help

Zatrekaz · December 22nd, 2009, 12:53 PM

So, im trying to decided between getting one of these options:

GT Hood w/ Scoop
Cowl Hood (cause I *might* do a M112 setup at some time)
Repaint Current hood (its chipped bad)

You can tell what my hood looks like from my sig.. I can post some more pics if it will help.

I don't know what it is about cowl hoods but i think they look sexy as hell lol. Either that or maybe a gt hood with a black scoop, i think that would look good also. There's nothing wrong with the one you have either.

NorCalWhtHrse · December 22nd, 2009, 01:29 PM

personally, i think the gt scoop looks dope with the setup you have....

Redux · December 22nd, 2009, 01:31 PM

Cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl, cowl. Even if you never did the M112, get the cowl.

Just be sure that you get one that is big enough to clear whatever setup you *might* do in the future, but nothing ridiculous.

cowl hood

Zatrekaz · December 22nd, 2009, 04:10 PM

Does anyone know if a place to get a quality cowl hood for a decent price? Local body shop quoted me $250 to repaint mind... seems a bit high to me.

mcqueen · December 22nd, 2009, 04:26 PM

Damn $250 for the hood? A shop near me repainted all 4 doors on my parents old Jeep Grand Cherokee for like $75 per door (they did a good job too). I'd say look for some other body shops and see if they quote you any lower.

sudbury33 · December 22nd, 2009, 04:40 PM

My favorite hoods- termi, Weem's Cowl, 00R Cobra (only with termi bumper), and then a Cervini's cowl.

Zatrekaz · December 22nd, 2009, 04:51 PM

So far I have a quote of $250, $350, and $450. Atm the first shop I went to is the cheapest... I see online where I can get one pre painted for $400 but it would then cost another $75 to ship. Freaking hoods are expensive.

Zatrekaz · December 22nd, 2009, 04:59 PM

Hmm, I could buy HOOD ford MUSTANG 99-04 primed 03 02 01 00 part car new:eBay Motors (item 230409150359 end time Jan-05-10 16:18:25 PST) that hood, then get it painted for $250... Would not be to bad. I could then buy a pre-painted hood scoop later on.

decisions decisions... this is going to be funded by my Tax Refund in Jan Lol.

00BlueMustang · December 22nd, 2009, 09:07 PM

Cowl by far!

I plan on getting the 2000 cobra r hood, whenever I get the money

foursixblurrrr03 · December 22nd, 2009, 11:09 PM

95 cobra r hood FTMFGDW!!!!

Attack_Cobra · December 22nd, 2009, 11:54 PM

My personal favorite is the Kaenen Cobra R hood.

Zatrekaz · December 22nd, 2009, 11:58 PM

Found a GT Hood one state away for sale for $200 shipped... might grab it since the price is good. Thats my main concern here is price. Plus I love the look of the GT hood with a black scoop. Would match my car as well.

If I ever have the need for a cowl I can always sell this one. Im sure there will be someone out there that will need a GT Hood.

88TempoGLS · December 23rd, 2009, 12:02 AM

gt hood looks good with the cobra style bumper, but i'd personally go with the cowl.

Gauge · December 23rd, 2009, 12:46 AM

Go hoodless and get all the air your engine needs

, just dont drive in rain.... But no seriously I have a GT hood, but i think those cowls are mighty damn sexy, I may get one myself.

Zatrekaz · December 23rd, 2009, 01:31 AM

Im currently the high bidder for this GT Hood... $100 with $50 shipping. Not bad at all. I reallllly hope no one Does the Buy it now which is $150 +$50 shipping.

Its a great deal, hence why I am going with the GT Hood.

I tried to get a GT Hood awhile back from a member here but I got ripped off. In the end I got my money back and he got banned...

zinc02GT · December 23rd, 2009, 01:38 AM

Go look at Drgn's old GT. That is a cowl hood to die for.

v606er · December 23rd, 2009, 01:40 AM

You could get the cowl hood, and paint it yourself.
