i dont like it, it looks like a stick on scoop, but smaller and perminant. the lines dont go with the stang and it looks awkward. just my opinion

at first that hood did not appeal to me w/ the red , gray color scheme but after seeing it on the vista blue... well, that is one of the best looking hoods(scoops) i've seen, it's very retro and modern and thats exactly what the S197 was build as. some of this other stuff (scoops), they all think SN95 and end up making something thats too small for the hood of the new car. i got around this issue w/ the shaker.
but yea, that hood looks very nice, the way ford should have done it. IMHO.

I wasn't that thrilled with it either at first, but like I said, it was free. Then as I drove around with it more, I liked it more. There are a couple things I would change if I was designing it, but I've grown quite accustomed to it. It was cool knowing I had the only one around, too. Now that they're selling them, I might not be one-of-a-kind any more.

Fit was real close to perfect though, only problem was the front edge was turned down just a hair more than the fenders, but we were able to adjust for that easily when we put it on.
