Default Need Opinions!!!

Well I've been debating a new hood for awhile now but I got an idea today while washing the Stang.

How do you think it would look if I had the hood scoop painted gloss black like I did the spoiler and putting on one of the Mach 1 hood stripes with the pinstripping?

what's wrong with that?



I think that a big cowl looks sweet, I'd paint the top of the cowl black then run the stripe the rest of the way down the car

I think it would look great. Some cars just dont look right with the cowl hoods, and that is a great option you can take I think. I think you should get the anniversary stripe instead though, i dont know how the mach stripe would fit.

this is just my opinion but do not care for the cowl hood. If I would ever get a new hood it would probably be the Cobra R hood.

or settle inbetween the mach look and buying a mach one. And get the mach 1 hood and shaker system. It's kinda expensive but looks baddass.

Gotcha, the mach stripe has kinda a pinstripe along the sides of it, and the anniversary stripe just fills the channel right in front of the scoop. I think frito has one as well.

Yea, eh, idk. I just like the look of the Cobra R. I'm just not a fan of the huge raised hood coming directly into the front window. The cobra r sort of reduces that.
