I was thinking about making my 2002 mustang gt hood functional. Has anyone done this? I was wondering where i could get this done at and if it is possible?

I did this without really thinking about it and it sucked. I just like the open hood scoop look so I cut out the honeycomb then the scoop flopped around over 60 and scratched up the hood. Had to take it off and reinforce with fiberglass mat. I actually cut a hole in the hood to let some of the air pressure out but all that did was cause rain and leaves to get in the engine bay.
