I bought a cowl hood today it was a local sale. I picked it up for 200.oo figured that was a pretty sweet deal. it come off a 01 white gt just like mine. it has the center painted black dont think I like that. will probably just paint it all white before installing. any opinions ?

Very nice. thinking of getting one myself., and i would def paint it white if i were you, seeing your car is all white.
Sweet deal man. I would just paint it all white. Thats my 2 cents.
The paint job doesn't look bad at all (from the pics at least) I'm having second thoughts on painting all white john lol. You have a mach 1 chin spoiler right? (At least that's what I think I saw in the pic) I think you should put it in and see how it looks first with the black down the middle. It might turn out killer.
I might bolt it on and take some more pictures and see what you guys think. the paint is in good shape it was raining when I just took these.
decisions decisions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:headscratch:
Decisions, aren't they tough or what lol. Yeah I think it might turn out good man:bigthumbsup

Personally i like the black, thought about doing it to my stock hood. I'd throw it on and then decide
I like the black. Paint your decklid black between the taillights and get some black Mustang bumper insert letters and it will look awesome.

I like it with the black if it was me Id leave it IMOP
Ya know that actually looks damn good, goes with your blacked out windows too. I would get the black spoiler like on the mach 1's, and like BT1288 said, paint that deck lid.
Well I'll be darned, it actually looks nice:bigthumbsup So either way you can't go wrong.
I like it. IMO it would look better with a Mach 1 grill delete.:bigthumbsup
Cowl

I like it, too.

The taller cowl hoods are the ONLY hoods where I like this treatment, btw.

I agree, a grill delete would help.

If you do anything with the stock rear wing, just delete it too. Its just a big, heavy trunk lid handle on our cars. If anyone wants to see the MINIMUM rear wing needed to generate down force, look at the big 2000 R types or a typical Q from Steeda. The stock wing just deposits dirt on the back bumper. A typical ducktail does a better job of cleaning up airflow, but also generates little downforce (unless you are going over 120mph).

Leave the lettering alone on the rear bumper, too.

As the new Bullitt proves, less is more when it comes to styling.

thats cool, so once's u get it to hook up it should be in the high 11's. im hope'n for mid 12's with 9psi setup on my car.
you should have no problems hitting mid 12's
