Cool New Hood Installed on my 2013 GT!

Here's are some photos of my new hood on my car. More (nicer) photos to come!

I got the A53KR hood from Stangmods.com (best price I could find for it).




Decided to fix the chin too where I pulled too far forward and hit a curb at work -__-










Here is a photo showing how the paint matches since in some photos it looks like it's off. The angles/lighting really affects how DIB looks lol.

That looks amazing. I'm hoping the next stang I get will be in DIB. So beautiful.

Mind me asking where you find the plastic car covers for painting and what they are called?

Can't seem to find them and would make masking 10x faster.

Thanks guys!! My father has a paint booth at the house so we prepped it and painted it in there. I think it came out pretty great. And the plastic car cover is something he had. I think he got it from a local paint place but I'll ask. Definitely comes in handy though lol.

I've been wanting a similar hood for my car for a while... Looks great.

I'm more of a fan of the BMC hood over this one, I just don't like that front shape on the hood that you chose. don't fit the look to me.

That looks awesome. That's my favorite hood for '05 and up. I think I've seen you on instagram.
