Like the spoiler. Not a fan of the hood scoop or the CJ emblem. The shaker hood scoop belongs on the Mach 1 IMO.

I will say this about the hood scoop even though a lot of people here hate it. It takes some ***** to drill a hole into the hood of a brand new shiny black 2013 mustang. So i respect you for having the gumption, i never could in a million years. I do think it adds a major level of bad-assery, especially to the black.

I see it now...never paid attention to the fact that the center hood buldge goes all the way down to the front on the '13's.

Since the hood looked so flat, especially from the inside, I think the shaker really looks nice. Plus it is a true cold air intake system. I know it's not to everyones taste, but it is part of the Mustangs past, and the Mustang is a Retro car. Also, the 1970 Mustang had the shaker as an available option on the convertible, not just the Mach model, so it is not just a Mach 1 item.

So, this scoop is not really a "shaker"....no way to get it on the intake to "shake" like the original when the engine flexes. Too bad, as that was neat on the Mach's and Trans Am's.

Yes, it shakes! It is bolted to the top of the intake manifold. There is a 3" Air Tube attached to the side of factory air box. It doesn't shake as much as the older models, but it does move. Especially over bumps.

Comments?
Your looks phenomenal Bill, PERIOD. End of discussion.

That's tons better than I thought it was (a stick on scoop). I'm still not a fan, but it's your car and you can do whatever you want to it.

Very Nice Job!

Agree that it takes massive huevos to take a saw to your hood.

Wonder what a shaker would look like if I could get it painted in Kona to match my paint.

Hmmmmm.... Time to break out the photoshop.

Keep up the mods - maybe some black rims?

Mustangs = legos for cars.

Good to hear the splitter is easier than what the video made it to be. After watching that video I was like no thank you but after your post I am now reconsidering.

Customizing is not for everyone, but remember that the Mustang is one of the most customized cars. Also, the shaker hoodscoop is offered in the Ford Racing Catalog and Ford has an imprint on the hood, under the mat, for the install

That's what I was going to say.

With no power dome on the '13, it looks a lot cleaner and flows smoother

Hey, I'm just impressed someone went to the effort of installing an functional scoop on the car. Bravo. The logo I could do without, but that's been said before by others.
