That hood is sweet, but that is the KR hood, not the SS hood. Car looks great.

 

in 1967: take a Lemans and put GTO body parts on it... That's totally lame.
in 1968: a base Mustang with a GT500 KR "body kit"... So weak.
in 1970: making a RoadRunner look like a Superbird... Go home.
Any of these fakes would be great to have now
but a GT500 conversion on a S197... Poser, See me in 40 years.

That's my opinion. To each his own.

 

good point...

 

Not rice at all. Mellowyellow your car is sick!

 

I don't see an issue with simple bumper/grill conversions (clearly because I'm planning one myself in the next month or two) but it gets a little iffier for me when it gets down to full badging, etc

My car will be retaining it's Roush rear spoiler even after the Shelby nose/hood go on, so I feel I'm in pretty safe territory (i.e. not making a carbon copy clone)

In any event, "Rice" isn't nearly the right word for the stuff being discussed here. None of it relates to overblown import tuner culture. Probably "Tacky or not?" would be better than "Rice"

 

is your car torch red? I have the hood off of my GT500 in torch red if your interested.

 

Yes, it is, and funds are tight for an aftermarket hood at the moment. You have a PM sir...

 

just add a s/c 5.4 and you'll be fine!
