Hood pins!!
 
2 Attachment(s)
Just like the title states.....Hood pins.
Got the Ford Racing hood pin kit.
Not what i wanted to do, but i took the hint since three guys locally lost their cowl hoods into their windshields in the last few months.
I don't mind them, but i've always like the clean look with the hood. Steeda does make a good quality hood with an excellent hood latch, reason why i never put them on in the first place, buuuuut safety first since i like to run the 1/4 mile, or take a cruise down the highway now, and then.
These are not the best pics, but you get the idea. I'll try to get better shots soon.
Took these tonight after giving the GT a wax down.

I am with you on the clean thing but with your color it looks fine.

-PLOTNIK- 08-21-2011 09:21 AM

looking good !

1low03gt 08-21-2011 02:19 PM

You are right, the silver helps it blend in, doesn't really pop out, reason i guess i don't mind it. LOL!

SNAKEBITE 08-21-2011 03:24 PM

to me it is important to color match so for me all black minus the lights, maybe next year

1low03gt 08-21-2011 09:59 PM

Isn't your GT500 all black already? How much blacker can you go??? :?

ChadStang 08-21-2011 10:54 PM

Looks good

I need to tint out all the lights. Not sure how dark to go as I do not drive it after dark often so may 5% (limo) like the windows:chacha:

1low03gt 08-22-2011 10:19 PM

That would look sweet! :tup
And thanks ChadStang.:)

Sharp addition dude, you're right, with the silver they are a little more subtle looking. Nice. Snakebite, your car gets any blacker and we'll have to get you a cape and start calling you The Dark Knight!!!

You would consider doing that with the Shelby?

SNAKEBITE 08-24-2011 05:24 PM

^^^seriously now, is it not a good idea Jay?

1low03gt 08-24-2011 10:20 PM

It's a really good idea. Could never be too safe really.:tup

SNAKEBITE 08-25-2011 05:08 PM

You had me wondering. I would do it for looks as this car has never been north of 100k's seriously

1low03gt 08-25-2011 05:22 PM

I myself like the simple clean look, but for the '05 plus mustangs, the hood pins really look good on them. I would do it on the '05 plus without thinking twice really, but for the SN95's, and new edges, it's a hit, and miss with me for some reason........But yet i had them on my '85 GT, and loved the look.

SNAKEBITE 08-26-2011 06:18 AM

My buddy with the Shelby GT has them and they look great. White car with aluminum look

1low03gt 08-26-2011 10:17 PM

I agree! :tup

SNAKEBITE 08-27-2011 02:18 AM

Some people don't have the eye for mods clothing etc etc so to them I say "leave it alone please" tehehehe

1low03gt 08-28-2011 01:08 PM

You right on that one! Some have the vision to make a piece of art out of their rides, while others, like you can see accross the interweb, don't. LOL

SNAKEBITE 08-28-2011 03:14 PM

or STOP already

VAEM 09-06-2011 06:57 PM

x 2 on the clean look - but the hood looks cleanest on the car, not bouncing off your windshield!

Got that right. There is no way i want a hood in my view unless it's the cowl portion while it's closed. LOL
