Default Hoods..opinions needed please.

Hello all. It's been awhile since I have posted anything or made any improvments to my stang, but I always like to get input from you on mods before I make them.

I am looking at beefing up the stang appearance by changing hoods. (I really cant afford a complete appearance package) I was looking at a 4" cowl hood

Question: What are your opinions on hoods? Like changes, if so what design. I see alot of people changing to the Eleanor hood. I hate to be like everyone else, but I want a hood that says "guess what's inside"

Anyway, any input would be greatly appreciated.

i was never really a fan oh the giganto hoods, but it does start to make it look like a drag racer. It will definatly have people guessing whats under the hood.

I think that hood would get people's attention.

I went with the shaker hood arrangement; not too pricey plus I get cold air induction. Don't see a lot of pony's out there with it and it does draw attention. Of course I couldn't leave well enough alone so I blacked out the hood and put a nice accent strip around the blackout, much like my '69 Mach 1 had
