I think it turned out awesome! The car is really dirty and it was about to rain but the pics came out ok. We ran the car around for awhile before we painted and decided it didnt need Hood Pins, but I'll keep an eye on it anyway. I'll take some more after my mods hit it this week. Were adding a chin spoiler, rocker panel stripes, tri-bar fender emblems and finishing the black out on the back and spoiler... rims and tires coming soon also

 

This looks great shaun
the hood, the color scheme.. i love it

one thing though.. get those hood pins, they add a retro touch and might save your *** someday

 

 

very nice great look

 

Very nice Shaun. Keep us updated on the progress. I'd love to see it finished

 

Looks awesome. Two questions for you.

1. Did the hood align well or require any trim/prep

2. Did you buy it from STEEDA

I am purchasing this on Monday, but trying to find a great deal on shipping because I am on the west coast.

 

Thanks for the compliments! I'm really happy to be getting under way with my mods
I bought it straight from Steeda, I dont rember shipping but it was freight so look for it to be at least $100. They have warehouses on each side of the country I believe. As for the fit it was great my painter complimented it and said it was the best he had seen, he said the gel coat on top made it really easy to paint but said he had to do some work on the underside of the hood to smooth it out but nothing difficult.

We also had to move my driver side fender in a hair there was a small gap differnce with the stock hood you really couldnt see it till we put the steeda on and that white hood on the blue body showed the differnce but that was a simple fix. Probaby came from the factory that way and wasnt noticable till we fitted the other hood.

 

Look's good

 

REALLY nice!

Can't wait to see with the blacked out spoiler to balance the look!

 

is it the race hood or street hood

 

Dave it is their street hood.

 

You can buy this hood with no worries. My body shop guys told me that this was the best hood that they had ever seen. the quality is awesome!!!

 

I second that!!!! You definately get what you pay for. Mine has been on for almost a year and so far I love it, especially the added effect the two tone paint gives the car!!!

 

Looks great, Shaun!
Do you have any pictures of how it looks from the driver's seat?

Why Ford didn't run a hood like that is a mystery.It looks very cool!

 

Looks Good!!!!

 

It looks like it would nicely vent some underhood heat and pressure. Let us know about stability at high speeds and if you need the hood pins! Looks good. I'm still an the fence between this Steeda or a Saleen, but this sure looks sharp!!

 

So far no troubles with stability without the pins, before we painted it we took it up to 120 mph and a high speed run down the mountain near us with no shake at all. I've also been on the highway trying to see any shake since its been painted and it seems pretty sturdy, I will keep my eye on it tho.

As for venting pressure from under the hood it sure does! You can feel the extra heat in the car from the opening in the hood and just standing outside the car while its idle you can feel the heat seaping out, also last night on my way home I noticed I could really hear my intake now when I push the gas down a bit
