Hard for me not to be biased, because if I had found a hood scoop I liked better than the Shaker I would have bought that instead. Like Tom said Sell you plenum cover. I intend to install a CAI too and will worry about fitment after I get it.
So another vote for B. CDC Shaker

Daryl... in that Bold Moves commercial (you and your son in the future), the stripes don't go down over the front bumper. It looks just like yours in the front.

No... just that it doesn't look bad the way you have it now.

That commercial is on www.msn.com right now. The "watch video" only come up on IE, though, and not Firefox.

If you notice the stripes end under the brake light too.

I think the front can live without the stripe, but I followed that guy out of work today and I think the stripe should at least go to the bottom of the tail lights.

You followed that guy from the Ford commercial??? I didn't realize you knew him. Maybe I missed that in my several weeks of not checking in on a timely basis. (just kidding, hopefully you know this)

Yep... I told Bill a few days ago that I was going to copy him. I like the lines, too.

I'm sorry Daryl. Talk to Tom - he's the King of Patience.

At least you'll have your bulbs to look at.

I looked on eBay and I can't find any there, either.

Somebody said they got them through Jeg's. I don't know if this is them or not.

I will probably lose or break the bulbs before I get the clears
Sounds like an e-mail should clarify and verify In-Stock or not.
Thanks Tom

THAT'S the link I was looking for!

I'd get them for the 20 or so extra bucks to have them now. Then you won't break your bulbs.

Well, my mini-poll results were a landslide (as expected), Shaker being the favorite. Thanks for participating Daryl & Tom.

Here's a pic of the Roush scoop with the CDC Chin Spoiler; no stripes.


And one with stripes with a non-striped hood scoop (Xenon), just for visual comparison.


If I go with the Roush, I may leave it non-striped and place it on the hood to see if I like the look.

If I go Shaker, it'll be black. Period.

I think it would look better with the scoop striped. So, to make it easier, just get the shaker and leave it black.

On another note... still no reply from Mustang Tuning about the gouged scoop.

I'm not 100% sure which direction I want to go with the scoop thing.

Tom- What swayed you from the C/S scoop to the Shaker? Maybe the same reasoning will apply to me too.

No response from MT, huh? I'm having trouble getting shipping info from BSM.

I really would like the stripes to be done by Father's Day.
