Someone make aftermarket hoods for the Shelby please

Ok the stock Shelby GT500 hood looks good, however the concept Shelby GT500 hood looked better. Now someone needs to get on the ball here and start making making hoods that will fit with the GT500 front Fascia. The '05+ Mustangs are some of the most modified cars around right now and so I don't see why making a hood for the Shelby front end wouldn't be successful. If anyone knows someone that is planning to make hoods to fit the GT500 let me know. My exterior is so close to completion but for the love of all that's good, I can't seem to decide on a hood.

Proglass makes 68 style shelby gt500 hoods. Look a bit bulky, but thats all Ive seen so far.

Thumbs up Done ... Now Place your order

kaenen makes one close to the Shelby GT500 Concept. Here are some of the
pics. Give them a call. I considered it before I went with the stock Shelby GT500 hood.

Does the stock hood fit with the GT500 front fascia?

I just think that the front of the shelby hood looks best. That or I wish Cervini's would make a hood like the GT-H with the 3" extension.

That's so much better than the production hood. That's one of the worst mistakes that they made between concept and design. The concept hood was 10x better than the production version.

The kaenan hood looks good but the front of it doesn't look right for some reason.

William, if you like that route...I have a GT-H/CS6 Hood I am selling, brand new, was on the car for 15 minutes for fitting.

It doesn't line up with the headlight posts as it is meant for a GT fascia but it pretty good with the GT 500 front. If you haven't seen it on one here is Louie's coversion with it.
