I still cannot decide on a hood stripe...
I am still going around and around in my head about which hood stripe to go with... My Mustang is an '08 in performance white and has a plain flat featureless hood. I never thought it would be so hard to pick the right finishing touch but for me the car looks unfinished with nothing on the hood.
Here is what I have...
These are the choices I am considering...
1. Black Boss 302 stripe
2. Black Mach I style stripe
3. Black U-stripe
4. Black hood scoop

I think a simple black shaker always goes good...love the foose or Fang hoods with the center spear too. in the pics its hard to judge the photochop on a 2010 with the hood bulge compared to your 05-09hood...
heres a pic of mine the day we painted it - fang/aeroform hood and shaker, with a kinda 70-ish mach1 stripe. my kids had been begging me to put white or silver stripes on mine, but I REALLY love the shakers, and REALLY loved the 69-ish hoods...

I also love the shaker and 69 hood too, though it's all out of my budget. I plan to keep my car at least a few more years until the all new 2015 comes out, so I do not want to waste too much $$$ on mods.
While I was doing these photochops, I also did each style hood stripe showcasing a shaker scoop and they all look good!

'foose' has a similar hood in ALUMINUM, they are on ebay once in a while as seconds/paint imperfection rejects for 5-600...probably sold out now

I actually had that look a short while a couple of years ago, but because of my lousy installation skills I took it off because it was crooked and it had a couple of bad spots. It drove me crazy when I looked at it head on and it was too obviously off center to the RH side. I wanted to replace it but I have been putting it off. And now that I have the Boss/Grabber side stripes I want something different to go with it.
