I had this one:
http://www.trufiber.com/2005_2009_Mustang_Fiberglass_A61_Hood_V6_GT_p/tf10024-a61.htm

Looks like they changed the vents from stainless vents to plastic/louvered which I like better.

And no hood pins. It wasn't unstable at all at high speeds. Never felt like it needed it.

But with the Duraflex and Saleen, have them needed them for sure.

The Trufiber cleared the DOB, the Saleen did not. I had to cut some off the bottom of the hood.

Those look pretty good. Similar to the Cervinis I was looking at:

Good to know the TF version cleared the DOB

I haven't seen any Cervini in person, so no comment on that.

Check this hood out:

The GT500 hoods are aluminum, too, aren't they? Do they have the same corrosion problems? I like those but think they need the GT500 front end to look right.
