I really like the look of this 5.0 engine. Yes I know a big chunk of it is a plastic facade. But, good looking none the less. Has anyone done a zr1 style glass window hood? I'd be curious what it would look like.

What do you guys think???

 

I think even the Corvette guys mock the pointless "window" on the ZR1 hood showing... plastic.



In fact, that smilie needs to be about six times larger to really get the message across.

 

so you're on the fence???

 

 

Eh, I think it would look awesome. Too each his own. Especially since the "power dome" would make for a perfect cut out window...go for it!

 

For a mustang... No.


Yuck.


Yes.

 

Sure, go ahead and do it! I think you should put a string of LED lights around the opening too. Then you need to get some stick-on reflective stars to stick all over the side of the car too!

Boy, wouldn't that be cool!!!

 

do not want

 

Completely agree, its awesome on mid-egine supercars but the mustang....

 

Only if they're blue LED's, all other colours aren't 733t.

 

Hey if a 1995 Honda Civic that I saw the other day can get away with it, why not a Mustang? Go for it

 

I wouldn't do it to my car but I saw a guy with a 99-04 GT do it to show off his Kenne Bell. It looked okay. Each to their own...

 

Just take off the hood... less weight too.

 

Yeah it would at least be something if the ZR1 had the supercharger spinning in behind it.... but to show off the cover of it... what a waste.

Watch the Z28 have one too....

At least with the Ford GT you could see stuff moving, and the SC behind your head... kinda cool.

 

ROFL - Good one!!

I was hoping someone would make a glass panel hood for the 'Stang. I think it would be awesome!!!!! Why NOT show off the new 5.0 engine or a supercharger? Muscle cars have had scoops, risers and whatever else on them for decades - some functional, some just for looks. I love the idea of a glass panel. No LEDs or ricer crap. Just tasteful understatement so that those who care what is under the hood can quietly walk by and take a gander.

 

How about a set of there to complete the look?

 

Just get one of these http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibG7N-CGa3U

 

LOLLL

 

Why so many haters? I have seen my fair share of questionable upgrades in the garages on this site. I think a glass panel would be a high end touch.

 

It was done for the 05 - 09, so why not 10+?
