Adding GT500 Heat Extractor to 2012 V6 Hood?
Hey all, this is probably a question for my friendly neighbourhood bodyman, but I'd like to dress up my hood without a giant crazy scoop. I really like the heat extractor / front vent that the GT500 uses it seems a little more understated. Found this on ebay...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAND-NEW-OEM-HOOD-SCOOP-ASSEMBLY-2010-2013-FORD-MUSTANG-SHELBY-COBRA-GT-500-/230995153456?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35c8625230&vxp=mtr
Wondering if anyone has cut their hood to add vents already, and specifically if anyone knows if the 2012 V6 hood shape would accommodate this piece?
Any experience/ thoughts?

The GT500 hood vent sits in a recessed lip on the GT500 hood. If you cut the V6 hood for that piece, it would be sitting on top of the hood and not look as smooth. I did a google image search and found a white V6 that was done that way and it looks ridiculous.

Thanks guys. Just bought a GT front bumper cover to swap out the V6 Pony Package front end, but car is still on a slow boat from Germany for another 2-3 weeks so I have time to figure things out.
I assume I'll need to buy a corresponding GT500 front end/bumper cover to mate with the hood?

I have seen the GT500 hoods as low as $400 as a take off. I wish they were that price close to me, but I think the one I found was in Texas. I'm afraid that it'll either get damaged in shipping or the cost to ship will out weigh the savings. Here's another I found on this website, but in silver.
