Default 2003 Hood Question

Hoping someone can help me.

I am looking for a hood and hood scoop for my 2003 Coupe V6. I am guessing the GTs & Anniversary Edition are where I can get one. First, I have tried a lot of salvage yards in Dallas and have been unsuccessful in getting a used one. I even used the online salvage service, what a joke that is, didn't even get a response.

Three questions:

1. What hoods fit my need?
2. Where can I get an aftermarket that fits well?
3. Does anyone know the difference between the two styles of scoops? There is one with 11 holes for mounting the scoop and the other has 4 holes for mounting the scoop to the hood.

1) any 99-04 hood will work - the material is the question. DO you want OEM, Fiberglass or Carbof Fiber?

2) try Cervinis or mybodykit.com or pick up a mustang magazine.

3) the more mounting holes/fasteners, the less stress cracking and a lower chance the scoop will fly off the hood.

Thanks.

One last question. My hood looks like it was made backwards. What style is it? It has the cutout near the front of the hood not in the rear like most.

It's the same hood as the 99 Cobras.
