I like Ford Racing's better... but is that tall enough say for a California Dream hood? Anyone knows?

And Stu, you car... well, I'm speechless, that picture looks UNREAL! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/drool.gif[/img]

Seriously, real nice. I hope when I'm done with my car, people get the same reaction as I just did looking at yours...

Cool, thanks! I wanted to know that, since I'm getting the hood painted this week, and I might just have to install them...

Wait, I was just going through the process of checkout with JEG'S, and they have a $10 charge for Handling! Free shipping, but there's no way that they have $10 of handling, NO WAY!

I'm calling Ford...

If these are what you are looking for, I picked them up at a local performance parts store here in Northern Va. It was 13 bucks for the pair. Available with Black or chrome posts. Straps were sold seperately. I'll probably add the straps this week.

Can't tomorrow. Take pics and post.

Tire is on the way from CALI, so I gotta ride tha donut for a week. THe car looks bad with that donut on it.

Yo, you should think about getting that GT-H hood if you go with the pins. The car would look killer.

You have a point with the hottie chick senario.

I got the mounts for my long tubes. Clearance issue. No problems with them.

Are you having problems with the engine shaking??

I don't have any pics, but I installed them through the middle of the rubber stoppers that are directly over the head lights. I just drilled through the center of them then slid the pin through.
