cowl hood?
 
So I've been thinking I want to do something for my car's exterior to make it stand out from a stock mustang.. just a little. I usually don't like Cervini's stuff but damn, check out this cowl hood..

what do you guys think? i've seen it on a red car and it's just secksi.. but what about on my dsg with the mach 1 grill delete and chin spoiler?

I don't really want a big ass scoop and I think the size of that is pretty resonable, I just hope I can see over it just fine cuz I'm a shorty :D

Lances03SVT 12-01-2005 03:07 PM

I really have considered that one too Christy.I think it would look damn good on your car.The rise is 3 inches.You should still be able too see shorty :)

Also I called them yesterday to check on shipping cost.And for them to ship to Missouri it was $130,so it should'nt be much more to KY.

I wouldn't get a cowl hood unless there was a need for it. But thats just me...

stang00 12-01-2005 03:20 PM

very nice hood dont they call that the other cobra r hood or sumthing on there website

csledd 12-01-2005 03:40 PM

i thought it was 2.5"? and it's the cobra r style from the sn95 I believe.

I use to feel the same way about cowl hoods.. but then again we have a big ass non functional hood scoop. besides what would make our cars need a big cowl hood? i knew they were good for carbs but most aftermarket intake's are suppose to fit under the stock hood.

Here's my Steeda 3" Cobra R hood. Great quality according to my bodyshop man..... I like it :D It's my opinion a big hood is OK if you got something to back it up :cool:

I'm not a big fan of cowl's if I ever got an aftermarket it would prolly be the 2000 cobra R, but damn, that first hood in this thread really makes me change my mind :)

It used to be 2.5 but on the website it now says 3 inch.

B-rett 12-01-2005 06:14 PM

god damnnit now i want that cervini's hood but i feel i need more hp to be worthy so i guess it wont b happenin for awhile

csledd 12-01-2005 06:54 PM

well hopefully my car has enough horsepower for it cuz I think I'll order it after january :o

MattJ 12-01-2005 07:12 PM

Looks good. Not too much cowl, not weak either. Id go for cervini over steeda though.
If I were to get a hood, it would be the 2000 functional cobra R hood.

bling! :D

B-rett 12-01-2005 07:41 PM

all i have is bbk cold air intake and dual chamber 40 series flows on my car that are performance mods.......thats why i feel im not worthy of that hood yet......4.10s are on the way but i feel i need at least full exhaust b4 that lol

Dont EVER say that again.

Now that thats over with, I like the Steeda one better compared to the first pic, but when you busted out that red one of your friends, well, I have a newfound respect for that cowl hood. Im not really big on them, and have said that if I get one, it will be a 00 R, but now I just dont know. Plus, having the cowl hood gives me an excuse to get a KB 2.2 *evil smile
