Tousley Ford has the cheapest prices on factory parts I have seen. The guys at the parts desk can help you with part numbers and the ordering process. If you stick with the necessities you could probably do it cheaper then the kits for sale on ebay.

I bought the Sterling Grey hood from a guy doing the SS conversion. Ford sells them for 1400 new and I wasn't about to do that. I have a Black hood with White Stripes and a Kona Blue hood available if anyone is interested in doing the conversion.

Ask them for a quote on a gt500 splitter, then ask us

Hey it was laying there, and I needed something soft to lay the hood on. The best part is, you snort it when your done. Nothing goes to waste.

I believe it is one of the foam blocks from the hood box.
