Got Hooded

1low03gt · Aug 24, 2006

Well after deciding on a which hood i really wanted i finally got one 3 weeks ago,and finally got it painted on monday.
It's the Steeda "Q 400" louvered hood.I always liked it since i first saw it on the Q 400 mustang,but wasn't sure for my stang.Glad i went with it.The fit and finish is perfect,101% .It's not to tall of a cowl,and fits the image i am trying to keep.Subtle,but yet aggressive..it think anyways LOL!!
What do you guys/gals think!!??
Before paint.

After paint.

VERY nice

1low03gt · Aug 24, 2006

Thank you!!!

Definatly looks good man!

My suggestion is to fulfill the "meaner" look. The stock 17X8s out back look very whimpy....IMHO 17x10.5 would really fill it out .

But anywho....is the hood finctional? Again congrats!

XxMustang281xX · Aug 24, 2006

I would get an S281 spoiler or something...somethings missing...but yes VERY mean looking

:OT: Do you have Eibach Sportlines? Because your car
looks just awesome with that drop!!

Looks good .

Looks good man

I agree with hotmustang. A set of deep dishes in the back will really set it
off. Either way still looks good.

cant go wrong with steedas hood quality, i got their regular cowl. i love the look. and damn you car is low. have to agree with wider wheels out back...you will love it.

bullitt_2620 · Aug 25, 2006

Car looks sick. I think part of it is the absence of the pony and fog lights...Dunno if that was the plan... but I like it.

03blkgt · Aug 25, 2006

awsome hood!

01Steeda · Aug 25, 2006

NICE!!

I like ADRENLN's hood better, but cant go wrong with either... I might do my body work while the car is down this go round

1low03gt · Aug 25, 2006

Thanks for the comments guys.Part of my choice in hoods was to be different then everyone else aswell,plus the fact i already liked the hood.I like the standard cowl ,or "R" hood,but going threw all the pics on various sites,every stang in the different pics shared that same style,or similar cowl hood .So that help in my discision
Plans are to have some deep dish bullitts,maybe next year.

Yeah,i love how the bullitts had the stripped down look,so i had to do it to my gt.
Once again,thanks for the compliments .

Looks good, as expected.
I don't know about subtle but definately aggressive.

I hate to tell you this but they didnt match the color to well

Do they make something like that without the louvers?

hotmustang331 · Aug 25, 2006

^ WOW your right...I didnt even notic that! Hood looks almost white in the pics.

And yea, its called a cowl hood .Notice adrenlns car...basically the same hood -the louvers.

1low03gt · Oct 8, 2006

Yeah,it is a tad lighter,but depending on the lighting.But can't complain as Silver is a pain in the ars to match.They wanted to blend into the fenders for this reason.The metallics,and pearls make it hard for them to match exactly,but it is really close,and i'm happy,plus i didn't want to blend into the fenders just incase one day i want to put the stock hood back on and it wont match properly .
Thanks again for the compliments!!!!

Looks great! Also, nice to see a gt w/o the fogs. I was thinking about getting rid of them but didn't know if it would look ok. Definately does.
