Hood scoop added to 00'
 
After Jack added all his photos, this is kind of a downgrade haha. But here it is finally finished. I can throw up a pretty detailed instruction guide for anyone interested in adding one. 200$ for scoop + grille + hardware.

does this one let air into the engine bay??

Looks good. Now you need to get some smoked headlights.

No it's non-functional

And yeah I need to replace the headlights anyways. They're cracked under the hood.

Now, forgive me for not knowing what my own scoop looks like. But that scoop looks more like the optional scoop on the 35th aniv models, no? They were a little bit flatter in the back than the later 01+ scoops...

HokieStang00 07-23-2007 01:53 PM

I bought it off Ebay, and as far as I know it's not. I think the reason it looks that way is that the 2000 hood was never meant for a hood scoop. (Correct me if I'm wrong) And that some tweaking is required to get it to fit right vs. putting it on an 01+ and having it sit perfectly.

the 99/00 hoods are 100% the same as the 01+ GT hoods just one came from the factory with the hoodscoop installed.

I think you might have a 35th anniversary since it seems to be shorter in the back then the 01+ GT scoops.

Is that good or bad? lol. I had just read around that it's more of a PITA to install a scoop on a 00' then on a 01'+. I assumed it was because something in the hood was a bit different.

it is perfectly fine, just means you have a hood scoop that is just slightly different from the population and was only out for 1 year.

Yeah i noticed it was a bit different. I plan on buying one for my 00, but the one that is on the 01+GT/Bullitt.

Its a 35th anniversary...I had one on my car before I went with the shaker...

Well I guess that's a nice surprise. I like the looks of the newer scoops, but it's always great to have something a little more rare. I don't think I'll be satisfied until I changed out the rims though. I'm just too cheap to do it.

caballo 07-27-2007 10:10 AM

I wanna say Dallas Mustang... they've been pretty good for the two things I bought from them. the scoop and the side louvers...

It MUST be cheaper to buy the entire hood from saleen or roush or someone already painted, EEP X_X

HokieStang00 07-31-2007 01:46 PM

The scoop was 145$ painted. The grille I bought SEPERATELY was an extra 45. I just rounded up to 200.

that's about what I paid for it all, too...

HokieStang00 07-31-2007 06:24 PM

Reasonable. I was just pointing it out to Shelby.. who thinks we got ripped off haha.

Steeda97 08-02-2007 05:11 PM

How much did it cost to have it painted? Or how much do you think it would cost?
