Factory hood-scoop retardation
 
Ok, I drove my new '07 GT Mustang off the lot because obviously I got a better deal doing it this way, however, this stupid riced-wannabe fake hood-scoop is just beyond dumb and I want to see what I need to do to either: a) loose it altogether, or b) make it functional. The later being the first choice in this situation. I would like to keep the factory hood, so any of you more experienced people have some ideas of who, what, when or where I need to go?

Thanks,
Wayne:worship2:

You bought a mustang. Fake scoops come with the territory LOL.


Talk to a body shop or just swap hoods.

You could always look into the functional shaker hood scoops, saw one set up on an 05 that that routed air to the supercharger :salook:

Yeah, you could always get a mach 1 shaker system, but they are pretty pricey and won't do anything for power...just looks. I personally like the fake hood scoop over the flat hood. I think the flat hood like really boring. Check this out.

Or you could have just choose the option that didn't include the hood scoop.

EEEh true, but I would rather wait for something I want and spend the intended dollar amount than get it right then and spend more than I had planed for.
