What is so great about them? Is it just the look? Sorry I am new to the whole mustang world, and the whole car world as a matter of fact

Couple of reasons.
-fiberglass is lighter than the stock hood
-you need additional clearance because of your intake selection
-they give the look that some people are after

They also suck more air into the engine so they cool the engine a little bit better. Plus its the back side of the engine where the fan has a tuff time hitting. A cooler engine = better performance At least it sounds right?

Most importantly they look mean... they also give you some extra clearance if you need it

Appearence, better clearance for bigger engines, superchargers etc, and little better cooling, and lightweight.
